The Park Authorities are reminding all UK residents to remember that Wales is in lockdown with only essential travel permitted, therefore people are unable to drive to visit any of the Welsh National Parks. Tegryn Jones, chief executive of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority said: “There is no doubt these are challenging times but all of our safety depends on people respecting the rules and doing the right thing. Right now this means staying at home to stay safe and only exercising from our doorsteps.
