National Nature Reserves - Scotland

Most reserves contain nationally or internationally important habitats and species, so the wildlife is managed very carefully. Visitor facilities are designed and managed to ensure that people can enjoy NNRs without harming or disturbing the wildlife that lives there.

Scotland has 43 NNRs; these are special places, showcasing the very best of Scotland’s nature, and cover just under 2% of Scotland’s land area.

SNH formally declares the National Nature Reserves Partnership’s recommended places under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949 and the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.

More information about the designation and background about NNRs can be found on the NatureScot website.
