Talk to the huntsman (M24, 2) and you'll learn that there are giant beetles (M17, 5) in the reservation, which eat tree bark. Talk to the steward (M24, 3) about it and head south to kill the beetles. When you do this, return to the steward and get 5 $ as a reward.
2) Kill wild boars (available during your second visit in the reservation)
It is enough to sail out from the reservation (e.g. to Nadoret) and sail back to get next task from the steward (M24, 3). Now you have to get rid of wild boars (M24, 6) to the southwest. After killing the last one you'll get a trophy: hunter of wild boars, which you have to get to the steward. He'll give you 7,5 $.

You next task from the steward (M24, 3) is to kill wolves (M24, 14), which are wandering in the west part of this locations, next to the bridge. Get the trophy to the steward and you'll receive 15 $ from him.
Z48. Orc plague
Obtained from: Steward Enno from Vardock (M24, 3). Available after first encounter with orcs in the reservation.
Notice! Remember to search dead orcs - archers. They are often equipped with a composite orc bow, which is worth a lot (you can sell it for around 8 $).
During exploration of the western part of the reservation, you'll meet orcs (M24, !). Kill them all and return to the steward (M24, 3). He knows about them already and will order you to get rid of them.
1) Get rid of the orcs
There are a lot of orcs (M24, !) in this location. But the most dangerous are ogres (M24, !). These creatures are very strong, especially when accompanied by orcs. The good idea is to fight with them one by one. A frontal attack usually ends with failure. Best choice is take a good archer and send him (her) for scouting. If the orc see your hero, run away shooting the orc. You'll be able to attack orcs one by one. When you kill all orcs, you'll see that the way forward is blocked by the tree (M24, 8).
2) Inform the steward
Inform the steward (M24, 3) and his farmhands (M24, 4) about the tree (M24, 8).
3) Remove the barricade
Removal of the tree (M24, 8) takes some time. It is no use to wait until farmhands (M24, 4) remove it. Sail somewhere and come back. When you're back to the reservation, the blockade will disappear. Talk to the steward (M24, 3) about orcs (M24, !) again. He'll order you to continue extermination of the orcs on the other side of the tree.
4) Get rid of the remaining orcs
Other orcs (M24, !) are located mainly in two camps (M24, 9 and M24, 12). The first camp is full of orcs and an ogre (M24, !). Try to pull out them individually.
You'll reach the second camp through the hidden gap between rocks (M24, 10). You'll run into the orcs' ambush (M24, 13), but you should manage to kill them. Now it is time to kill all orcs in the camp. There are many of them plus ogres in addition (one of them is extremely strong), the orcs' shaman and the orcs' chieftain (M24, !) (the latter two are not much stronger than normal orc).
The easiest way to fight with orcs is to reach the camp from the river side. You can approach the camp, pull out few orcs and then run away by the river. You can also plant some traps on the way.
5) Inform the steward
When you're sure that all orcs are dead, return to the steward (M24, 3). He'll give you 25 $ as a reward.
