Lincolnshire is known for having plentiful open space and this can be enjoyed further in one of many nature reserves. There are around 100 which are operated by the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust which offer scenic walks and great opportunities to observe wildlife. The four principal reserves which show the diversity of the nature in Lincolnshire and include visitor services are:
Gibraltar Point, near Skegness
Whisby Nature Park, near Lincoln
Far Ings, near Barton-upon-Humber
Snipe Dales, near Spilsby
Also operated by Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust and of note is Donna Nook Nature Reserve located on the coast between Mablethorpe and Grimsby. It is famed for having one of the largest and most accessible colonies of grey seals in the UK, a special wardening service is in operation during November and December to protect the seals and also to further explain the animals and the breeding process to visitors.
The vast reserve at Frieston Shore near Boston is operated by the RSPB and offers an excellent opportunity to explore the Wash which is the most important estuary for wildlife in the country.
