Potencjał geoturystyczny rzeźby lessowej projektowanego Geoparku Dolina Kamiennej

This paper provides an assessment of geotourism potential of the loess relief of the projected Kamienna Valley Geopark, by selecting the most interesting, scientifically and didactically, gulley regions, comprising natural and cultural heritage related to the occurrence of loess cover. The possibility of using geotourism potential of the loess relief by delineating geotourist routes is evaluated. The main barriers limiting tourism development within the geopark is the low awareness of the loess geoheritage among local administrative units and tourist guides, afforestation, poor access to public transport, and lack of tourist infrastructure in the loess gullies. In summary, the paper points out to the benefits that could be achieved after including the loess areas into the project during the establishment of the Kamienna Valley Geopark.
