Tillman Road Wildlife Management Area

Tillman Road Wildlife Management Area is a small conservation area located inside the Town of Clarence (Erie County) in western New York, USA.

Tillman Road WMA contains approximately 235 acres (0.95 km²), including an 80-acre (320,000 m²) cattail swamp. The preserve is crossed by several trails, including two loops of different lengths. The WMA is bisected by Tillman Road, where one centrally located parking area is located. A second parking area is located on Bergtold Road at the north end of the preserve.

A short section of boardwalk and a viewing platform are located by Bergtold Road. Parts of some trails are elevated on narrow boardwalks due to swampy conditions.
