Maze Park Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Middlesbrough, England.
The 42-acre reserve contains three landscaped viewing mounds offering panoramic views across the River Tees and industrial landscapes of Teesside.
The land transformed from Tees Marshalling Yard into a nature reserve through the efforts of Teesside Development Corporation in the late 1980s.
The reserve features metal butterfly sculptures and dedicated cycle racks, reflecting the presence of twelve butterfly species inhabiting the grasslands.
Visitors can access the reserve through a free parking area on Maze Lane or from the Tees Barrage, with surfaced pathways suitable for walking and cycling.
The central mound incorporates materials from Thornaby blast furnace, supporting specialized plant species like yellow wort and bird's-foot trefoil.
