The Lizard peninsula is one of the best locations in the country for wildlife, with a wealth of rare plants, invertebrates and habitats that make visiting the area a must for nature lovers.
The NNR on the Lizard has been extended by 466ha (from 1960ha) to include additional wildlife rich areas in the care of the National Trust and Cornwall Wildlife Trust. The enlarged reserve now stretches from Mullion Cove in the west, across Goonhilly Downs in the centre of the peninsula, to Lowland Point, near Coverack in the east.
