The Mogumber Nature Reserve is a nature reserve in Western Australia. It is a refuge for the endangered Western Swamp Tortoise along with the Twin Swamps Nature Reserve and the Ellen Brook Nature Reserve.{{Cite web|url= http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/threatened/species/western-swamp-tortoise.html |title= Pseudemydura umbrina (Western Swamp Tortoise) |publisher= Australian Government - Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities}} Twin Swamps and Ellen Brook are IUCN Protected Area Management Category IV Reserves, while the Mogumber Nature Reserve is a Category Ia nature reserve.

The vegetation is a woodland dominated by marri (Corymbia calophylla) and jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata). The rare species Darwinia carnea (Mogumber bell) occurs in the area.{{cite web |title=Enhancing Mogumber Town Reserve as a local natural asset : NRM WA |url=http://www.nrm.wa.gov.au/projects/15006.aspx |website=www.nrm.wa.gov.au |publisher=Government of Western Australia |language=en}}

Amongst the fauna is a group of Carnaby's black cockatoo, attracted to tree hollows and food in the woodland.

The site is associated with the Yued people of Southwest Australia, who record it as a meeting point for other groups and within the broader Moore River Mythological Waggyl site.
