Explanation:
if it is for hunting, I would say: coto de caza

if it is for observing: reserva natural

Note that these are different things. In most countries it is forbidden to hunt in a reserva natural, because mostly endangered species are kept there.

In a coto de caza it is allowed to hunt.

Hope this helps! :)
