Parking charges

During our 18 month trial, the parking charges will be reinvested into nature conservation, countryside management and our first ever Ranger Team. Our rangers are a friendly face to greet on site and will be helping to keep our sites clean, safe and enjoyable for all.

We hope during the trial we'll see incidents of fly tipping and antisocial behaviour decrease - making these sites safer and more enjoyable for everyone!

We’re introducing parking charges at Swinsty, Fewston and Thruscross.

This applies to the four car parks at these reservoirs:

• Swinsty Stack Point

With an annual pass there is the option for visitors to add an additional car to the pass, you will need to make sure you have the correct vehicle selected before visiting. You can do this online when logged in to your permit account.
