Knocksink Wood is a national nature reserve of approximately 129 acres (0.52 km2) located in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is managed by the Irish National Parks & Wildlife Service. Knocksink Wood was legally protected as a national nature reserve by the Irish government in 1994. The wood is also listed as a Special Area of Conservation. The reserve had an educational centre, now permanently closed. The reserve is located in a valley, with the slopes predominately sessile oak. Other areas have more mixed woodland. Within the reserve there are numerous springs and areas with water seepage, with the petrifying springs being one of the most important habitats listed in the EU Habitats Directive. Knocksink Wood has the most diverse woodland invertebrate fauna recorded in Ireland, with a number of animals specific to wet woodland that are of threatened status in the EU. -- Wikipedia
