Conservation is a big part of the area. RSPB and United Waters have joined forces to offers a good habitat to peregrine falcons, redstarts, and ring ouzels as a few examples of the bird-species and ensuring that the forest offers a good nesting and foraging ground for red squirrels. A donation cairn, to support the RSPB’s work at Wild Haweswater, is situated in the car park. They suggest a donation of £2, but any amount large or small is gratefully received. Please note that only cash donations can be made in the cairn as the lack of mobile phone reception means they are unable to take card payments. However, if you wish to send an online donation to support their work, you can do so here. There is also a Mountain Rescue cairn in the car park, you are kindly encourage you to support their life-saving work if you feel able to.

Now owned by United Utilities, the reservoir was under Manchester Corporation’s ownership when work started on the construction of the dam in 1929. Prior to this, Haweswater held the title of the Lake Districts highest natural lake. The level then rose a further 29 metres with the building of the dam, which completed in 1935. The reservoir was built in order to supply drinking water to the Manchester and it's in a drinking water safeguard zone.

You can reach this lovely Tarn by way of a good (though quite steep in places) track that goes up from Hartsop. It was apparently dammed in 1908, supplying water to Penrith, but this has since been removed. The water is crystal clear, and the banks are grazed by sheep. On a calm day, it's a very peaceful spot.
