the same rationale can and should be applied to areas
manifesting ensembles of inter-related signi
. Once protected in conservation parks, both can be
utilised for local socio-economical sustainable development
through ecotourism or geotourism (i.e., as
geopark
cant geological
and geomorphological features. The
rst can be considered to
biotours
or as
be worthy of conservation as a

and the second as a

) and for Science and Education.
