| | | Re: Which National Park? I choose Loch Lomond as it is the nearest to my house and the only one I visit regularly. There are probably others on the list that could be better than my choice but you can only really vote for the ones you know. |

| | | Re: Which National Park? It is very difficult to choose, especially as there's two (Brecon Beacons and Lake District) that I've never visited, but for me the North York Moors takes it by a short head from the Yorkshire Dales.
And me a softie southerner!

| | | Re: Which National Park? I voted for Brecon Beacons as fave as is only 15 mins drive away and full of a lovely varied habitat from upland and lowland valley streams to moor, mountain and pasture..... yes smitten
I also wanted to vote for Pembrokeshire as that too is gorgeous and carries a rich wildlife value, however, wouldn't let me vote twice
