Developing Urban Geotourism in Brno (Czech Republic)
Original language description
In the last years, geotourism is conceptually developed in urban areas, although the use of geodiversity and related features in cities for tourist and educational purposes is much older. The term "urban geotourism" is defined as tourism based on the places within the city boundary (both in the form of built heritage and rock outcrops) that is related to geological concepts and features. As the first step for the development of urban geotourism it is necessary to identify and inventory the geotourist resources, which should take into account both natural (geological, geomorphological, hydrological or palaeontological, and ecological aspects related to geodiversity), and cultural aspects related to geodiversity (e.g. monuments, building stone, geo-toponyms, anthropogenic landforms). Based on the inventory, sites suitable for geotourist activities are chosen. These include 1) protected geosites and sites included in the national database of geological localities, 2) other natural sites (not included in the previous point), especially small outcrops or hydrological features, 3) geocultural sites and objects (e.g. anthropogenic landforms, archaeological sites with a strong link to geodiversity, buildings where the local material is used). The contribution presents examples of the possible use of the geotourist resources in Brno (Czech Republic).
