Lake District National Park

Play your part in the Lake District National Park - the UK's latest World Heritage Site. Discover. Explore. Inspire. Around 200 staff work for the Lake District National Park. They include rangers taking care of our special landscape, advisers at our information centres who make sure tourists have an amazing visit, property teams, planners and archaeologists. Administrative staff and those working at our head office help provide the infrastructure and support vital to our care of the outdoors. The Lake District is home to the highest mountain in England in Scafell Pike, and the deepest lakes in Wastwater and Windermere. Our purpose is to enhance the unique environment of the National Park and manage it as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where: · the landscape and its diverse wildlife thrives · the more than 40,000 people who live and work in the park create vibrant, prosperous communities · our millions of visitors enjoy an outstanding experience. Find out more about the Lake District as a World Heritage Site at: www.lakesworldheritage.co.uk and use #WeAreTheLakes on social media to celebrate this special place. Our journey towards this vision requires us to work alongside others who share our dependency on, and passion for, this inspirational part of the country. So, in addition to delivering our own services with professionalism and pride, we will continue to work closely with the Lake District National Park Partnership and other stakeholders. As stewards of a truly special landscape, about which Wordsworth said, “every man has a right and an interest who has an eye to perceive and a heart to enjoy”, we will encourage others to help us create a truly sustainable National Park.
