WANPA - Welsh Association of National Park Authorites

The three Welsh National Park Authorities work in partnership as WANPA (the Welsh Association of National Park Authorities).  WANPA promotes the purposes and interests of Wales’ three National Parks; the Brecon Beacons, the Pembrokeshire Coast and Snowdonia.    

WANPA provides National Park Authorities with the means of identifying issues of joint interest and agreeing outputs.  Information and experiences are shared between colleagues, policy makers, local communities within the National Parks and visitors to these protected areas.

WANPA’s existence owes itself to the political and policy differences resulting from the devolution of powers from the UK Government to the Welsh Assembly Government.  

On these web pages you will find information about WANPA, news releases, position statements, publications and frequently asked questions.
