Geopark Neisseland: Concept, purpose and role in promoting sustainable tourism
Original language description
Over the past few years, work has started on the preparation of the Neisseland geopark, which should be located in the German-Czech-Polish borderland. This area is very rich in attractive geosites, whose diversity on a small area is mainly caused by the presence of the Lusatian fault and the existence of the continental glacier in Pleistocene. There are also several large-scale protected areas in this area, so the question is whether the geopark is meaningful and what is its purpose. In our article we describe the current state of the plan to create a Neisseland geopark, its future activities and connection to the most important geosites in the region. The Geopark is introduced as a comprehensive tourist product designed to protect the natural and cultural heritage, promote sustainable tourism and educate the public. The situation of the emerging geopark is compared to other geoparks in Central Europe, their activities and their functioning, with special regard to the fact that the geopark is to be trilateral. Discussed is the question of geopark as a marketing brand that should attract tourists to less visited areas and support the local economy there.
