Neeruti Landscape Conservation Area is a nature park which is located in Lääne-Viru County, Estonia.[1]

The area of the nature park is 1250 ha.[2]

The protected area was founded in 1957 to protect Neeruti Hills and its surrounding areas. In 1999, the protected area was designated as a landscape conservation area.[1]

The Neeruti Hills hide what is believed to be the oldest known nest[where?] of the common buzzard, discovered by Marek Vahula in 1982.[citation needed]
