Park in the Carpark and go into the Visitor Information Centre to collect an entry ticket. There will be a separate table for orienteers to collect their tickets, rather than at the normal counter. Put your entry ticket on the car dashboard. TNR have very kindly waived the entry fee for orienteers, but we will be collecting gold coin donations at the parking area.
