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.[4] 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.[5]

Amongst the fauna is a group of Carnaby's black cockatoo, attracted to tree hollows and food in the woodland.[5]

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.[5]
