We want everyone to be able to make the most of the National Park. It’s an amazing place and we want it to stay that way. Here are our top tips for how to enjoy the National Park responsibly:

Take your litter home[1]

Never cut down or damage trees to make a fire[2]

When nature calls - use a public toilet or ‘go’ well away (30m) from open water, bury your waste or bag it up and take it away

Dispose of your fishing line responsibly

Keep noise down and lights low after 10pm

Be aware of road conditions and park your vehicle responsibly
