Geoparks are places where outstanding and rare geological landforms are preserved in an undisturbed state and where low impact recreation, scientific research, and educational activities can be pursued. Typically, a geopark contains protected geologic feature at the core and small or mid-sized towns around it, inside the geopark's borders.
Most geoparks are envisioned and planned at the local level. Geoparks become places that people from around the world come to visit and where local school children and adults learn about the incredible, world class geologic land features in their backyard. And wher geoparks have been established, there are many remarkable examples of a sustainable business infrastructure rapidly developing to support these activities.
There are currently 89 geoparks in 27 countries around the world.
