Can't really give you any actual parking spots but please follow the normal rules of security when parking in the National Park. There are far too many instances of people leaving their cars unattended and returning to find them one window fewer than when they left them.

Other than that, there are loads of places to park within the National Park and all of them are free. :)

I believe there is stuff on the NP website but the basic rules apply. Don't leave valuables in the car don't leave stuff on the seats, maybe leave the glove box open so people can see that it's empty etc etc. Don't get me wrong, I've left my car up there dozens of times and never had a problem but it is known as a black spot for vehicle crime.
