Rowhill Nature Reserve (also known as Rowhill Copse) is a nature reserve situated in Hampshire on the Surrey border between Aldershot and Farnham and residential roads adjoining the A325 and the Alton railway line in England.
Rowhill Nature Reserve straddles the border between Aldershot and Farnham. It is linked to the Rowhill area, by name, but does not form part of the Rowhill ward. The source of the River Blackwater is located within the nature reserve.
The reserve includes a field centre which is open in the afternoon on Sundays and Bank holidays.
The nature reserve is owned by Rushmoor Borough Council and is maintained by a group of volunteers from the Rowhill Nature Reserve Society. The society received the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service in 2011. While the reserve is owned by Rushmoor Borough Council, it was declared a local nature reserve by Waverley Borough Council in 1983.
The nature reserve also lends its name to a ward for certain elections forming the southwest of Aldershot, which is also known simply as West End.
