Naturenet is a voluntary enterprise to provide a good resource for practical conservation on the Web. We are based in the UK, and most of the information available on Naturenet relates to the UK, particularly England. We also include references to other countries outside the UK.

Naturenet is intended for those interested in the countryside, its management, and nature conservation. As well as anyone who enjoys visiting the countryside this includes ecologists, rangers, wardens, volunteers, students, tree wardens, biologists, birdwatchers, land agents and farmers. As well as the index of sites we keep an up to date reference section giving information about organisations which are involved in this field, and formal designations which are given to reserves, parks and other sites.

Since our humble beginnings as a simple list many other pages of information have been added, including countryside law, environmental education, biodiversity and countless others.
