Nature Reserves

We take care of 16 nature reserves across Sheffield and Rotherham.

© Chris Senior

This section of the website deals with news, events and more detailed information about our local nature reserves. For maps, travel instructions and general information about each of the reserves please click on the individual reserve pages.

We currently manage 16 nature reserves, ranging from large moorland areas of international importance, to small city centre nature parks. These pages will help you find all the information you need about each of the reserves, how to get there and what you can expect to find on your visit.

Please note that if you are taking your dog on any of our reserves, please keep them on a lead during bird breeding season (between March and August) and around any grazing cattle.

To get in touch with us about any of our reserves, please email nature.reserves@wildsheffield.com or call 0114 263 4335.
