Which is the UK's largest National Park?
The Cairngorms National Park is a national park in north east Scotland, established in 2003. It was the second of two national parks established by the Scottish Parliament, after Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, set up in 2002. The park covers the Cairngorms range of mountains, and surrounding hills. Already the largest national park in the British Isles, in 2010 it expanded into Perth and Kinross.
The Cairngorms National Park covers an area of 4,528 km2 (1,748 sq mi) in Aberdeenshire, Moray, Highland, Angus and Perth and Kinross Regions. Aviemore is a busy and popular holiday destination. The Highland Wildlife Park and Dalwhinnie distillery also lie within the National Park.

As a Scot I am truly embarrassed by getting this wrong (I thought it was the Lake District!). My head is hanging in shame. :-(

Barbara Gondosch, Maitham Kaivan, Sue Busby, The Lake District is the largest of the thirteen national parks in England and Wales. The question is about the UK and Scotland is in the UK therefore the Cairngorms is the largest in the UK and the answer is correct.
