Part of the Lee Valley Reservoir Chain, this impressive body of water lies to the west of Epping Forest in the borough of Enfield. It supplies London with drinking water but it's also an important habitat for overwintering birds, making it a joy to visit in winter as well.

Amwell Nature Reserve is a wonderful place for a stroll, with beautiful viewpoints and much to interest wildlife enthusiasts. It is host to myriad habitats including reedbeds, grassland and woodland. The most interesting aspect of the reserve is Great Hardmead Lake and its islands. Summer is notable for the 21 species of dragonfly that hunt across the waters, while winter sees migrating birds inhabit the site. There's even a designated Dragonfly Trail, which is open between May and September.

King's Meads Nature Reserve is one of the largest water meadows in Hertfordshire. It is home to 265 types of wildflower and 119 species of bird, including many rare species. You can expect great displays of wildlife at all times of year, but especially between April to July and November to February.
