The European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Areas is a positive indicator that the management of the National Park is being undertaken in a sustainable way, in line with international standards of best practice. We will continue to use it as a means of benchmarking our work to create a truly sustainable visitor destination.

Key Objectives and targets

Secure the National Park’s reputation as an international exemplar in sustainable tourism and the management of protected areas.

The National Park continues to be accredited with the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Areas and the Glasgow Declaration (Climate Action in Tourism).

  • Submit a Tourism Action Plan to EUROPARC by 2023 and secure accreditation.
  • Maintain our status with the Glasgow Declaration (Climate Action in Tourism).
