In light of the Coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic, many facilities are operating on reduced capacities or have been closed to the public.
This means putting in place the right measures to keep visitors, staff and communities safe so not everything will be ‘business as usual’ and not everything will open at once. Please visit our advice for visitors page for the latest updates.
The map below highlights key visitor destinations across the National Park and the facilities at each site. To help with planning check the locations of toilets in the National Park and for beyond the boundaries of the National Park see Lockdown Loo.
The table below shows which facilities are available at each visitor location and the current status of car parks across the National Park.
To help you locate the car parks around the National Park, and maybe even explore some new locations, we have introduced What3Words locations to each of our car parks to help you find your way there.
If you spot an error or something you think should be added drop us an email.
You’ll find a list below of the car parks around the National Park and whether they have associated facilities, to help you plan your visit.
During the winter months some facilities may operate on a reduced capacity, therefore please be patient if locations are busy, or consider visiting other areas.
* These car parks are close to popular hills and walks and tend to fill up early in the morning in good weather.
