The Yorkshire Dales is a national park in Yorkshire, United Kingdom. It was designated as such in the mid 20th century. It has many mountains and small villages, such as Whernside and Malham respectively.
Tourism
Tourism is a problem in the Yorkshire Dales. A 1989 survey showed that around 70 miles of paths in the area were damaged due to trampling, and on warm days the small villages in the area, such as Malham, become seriously overcrowded.
Possible expansion
In 2011 an expansion of the park was proposed, which would make it contiguous with the Lake District and increase the size by 25%.
