Car park locations

Car park pay and display machine

There are almost 2,000 car parking spaces across 44 Peak District National Park Authority car parks [listed below] that allow you to park safely and avoid damaging landscape and habitats in the National Park.

Please use the car parks provided and help to keep roads safer and clear for farm vehicles and the emergency services. All of the money collected in parking charges goes back into helping us look after the National Park and providing visitor facilities.

Did you know we have both annual and weekly parking permits available for regular visitors, which can save you up to £75 a year if you visit just twice a month? These permits can be used in any Peak District National Park Authority pay and display car parks with the millstone logo shown below.

A pay and display ticket is not transferable from one vehicle to another and on transfer the ticket  ceases to be valid. A pay and display ticket is only valid in the parking place in which it was issued.  This is defined by the reference code of the ticket machine located in that parking place printed on  the pay and display ticket.

EV charging points: these are available at Millers Dale station and Parsley Hay. Download the Podpoint app before your journey.

Cash and card payments are not available in all locations, so please be prepared for our coin only and card only machines. The payment methods are shown below.

Cashless payment by app

All Peak District National Park Authority car parks requiring Pay & Display now offer a quick and easy alternative to pay by phone with RingGo, the UK’s no.1 parking app.

No reception?

If phone reception is not available at time of parking, please take a note of the location number and pay immediately after your visit, usually this will need to be within 24 hrs to avoid any further action in relation to non-payment. This condition applies to the following sites only:

  • Derwent Overlook
  • Hartington Station
  • Milldale
  • Millers Dale
  • Upper Burbage Bridge

For all other locations, a valid ticket, permit or blue badge must be on display or payment by phone submitted.

How to use RingGo

  1. Download the RingGo app - go to the App Store or Google Play Store and search for RingGo.
  2. Set up an account by registering a few details so the next time you want to park, you can pay in seconds.
  3. When you park in an area where RingGo is offered, you need to:
  • Confirm your vehicle registration number (with no spaces).
  • Enter the five or six-digit location number shown on signs at the location. For example, if there is a sign with ‘234567’ displayed, this is the location code you must use.
  • Select how long you want to stay.
  • Confirm your payment details.

If your parking is running out, you can extend the time wherever you are by using the RingGo app. Select your current parking session from the sessions tab and the app will ask how long you want to extend. Choose a time, confirm and your parking is sorted.


None of our car parks have height restriction barriers in place and are therefore suitable for small to medium sized motorhomes visiting during the daytime. Some of our car parks are lined so may not be suitable for larger vehicles in the marked bays. Bakewell Station is not suitable for motor homes and other larger vehicles.

Overnight parking at all of our car parks is prohibited, and may be subject to patrols.

Disabled parking: Please contact our Customer Services team for information on the most suitable car park locations, accessible trails and cycle hire opportunities if you have additional mobility needs. We aim to provide clear demarked/delineated disabled bays where car park surfaces allow.
