Many of our nature reserves are of national and international importance for wildlife, and are great places for people to visit to see wildlife. Managing nature reserves helps us achieve our vision for a Living Landscape.
We organise over 200 events a year on our nature reserves - everything from guided walks to family activity days.

Our reserve descriptions include maps and information on how to get there. To make things even easier, we have set up POIs (Points of Interest) for some of our larger reserves, which you can download into a satnav. - Download to your computer, the files which contain the POI definitions for Garmin and TomTom satnavs and the small logo which will show where the reserve is. To download these files, right click on the links above and choose Save Target As ... (or similar).
- You will need to consult the satnav manual to find out how to load the POIs (HIWWT_reserves.ov2 for TomToms or HIWWT_reserves.csv for Garmins) and the logo (HIWWT_reserves.bmp) onto the satnav device.
