31 National Nature Reserves across four counties.
Each region has an outstanding variety of wildlife habitats and the best examples of these are protected as National Nature Reserves.
Visitors are welcome on our NNRs because we want people to experience and appreciate these wonderful places. NNRs are open all year round, all ages are welcome and entry is free. Many of the reserves have a programme of events, often designed around seasonal highlights.
Check the events list for North West NNRs in 2012.
The region comprises Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside.
