High Leys is located to the south-east of Rowrah in Cumbria ([http://www.magic.gov.uk/website/magic/viewer.htm?startTopic=maggb&xygridref=306081,518310&startscale=5000 map]), along the C2C cycle route prior to Sheriffs Gate.

The status of national nature reserve was awarded to High Leys due to its meadow status and the traditional hay-making and grazing methods employed during the land's working lifetime.{{cite web|title=Template |url=http://www.cumbria-wildlife.org.uk/westCumbria.html |publisher=Cumbria Wildlife |accessdate=26 October 2010 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110316062200/http://www.cumbria-wildlife.org.uk/westCumbria.html |archivedate=16 March 2011 }}
