Car parking income

We operate 44 rural car parks as part of our responsibility in managing access to popular locations in the national park.  Thirty nine of our sites have pay and display machines;  the income from these helps towards providing and managing the car parks, toilet facilities, and the costs of managing our estates and traffic-free trails.

Some car parks have formally designated bays, and unmarked areas for larger vehicles. All the car parks offer a cashless payment option through the RingGo App.
