Interpretation of secondary geodiversity: Experience from geotouristic guide practice
Original language description
Geotourism is a form of knowledge-based tourism that has been increasing in recent years. The most popular destinations of geotourism in the Czech Republic are rock towns and outcrops, volcanic areas, mineralogical and paleontological localities, or museum collections. Somewhat of interest are secondary geodiversity sites such as quarries, rock castles, mills and dwellings, the remains of old mining activities, anthropogenic landforms, various rock reliefs, etc. Compared to the often-dramatic geological processes that lasted millions of years and created immense masses of rocks, these geosites offer less colossal stories, but that does not mean they are less interesting. The key to arousing interest in these sites is a good interpretation, which is not limited to the professional description of the sites, but is able to inspire the visitor with its story. The example of two geosites (quarry and rock dwelling) explains how to use the strengths of secondary geodiversity for its interesting and attractive interpretation. The underlying data are evaluation questionnaires from geological walks, field workshops and educational field events (co-) organized by the Technical University of Liberec in the years 2017 - 2020.
