European Geopark Book

For the first time the varied and fascinating geological heritage of Europe has been collected into a book, complete with color photos and text that help the reader explore the exciting world of the European Geoparks Network.
Geared to the general public, this 166 page hardcover picture book features 32 geoparks from 13 European countries with informative non-scientific articles on each geopark’s activities and attractions. The history of the geopark movement is also an interesting read, as is its relationship with UNESCO, projects, evaluation and membership, alternative tourism and educational activities in rural areas of Europe.
This publication is a testament to the active beliefs of people across Europe who seek to safeguard our geological heritage in a responsible and holistic manner – a manner which is now officially supported by UNESCO.
