Didn't see when zoomed in to your view. clear now from low zoom.
you can hack it but that is dirty tagging for the renderer.

Osmarender: add layer=-1 to the park
Mapnik: add a water polygon and this will render on top of all other area 
features.

If you consider micro mapping in future it's probably better not to use the 
landuse at all instead add a boundary national_park to render the boundary 
itself and have landuse polygons for wood,meadow,… for the details
