TOUR NAME
To be approved as a European Geopark under the auspices of UNESCO, a site must be able to prove that its geology is “of European interest”. Magma Geopark area obtained membership because the area is made up of very important geology: unique rock formations that comprise a “moon landscape”. Many of the Magma Geopark rocks are the same type as found on the surface of the moon: it is like walking on the moon! Geologists have visited this area for over 100 years, producing over 350 major and minor scientific geological studies and a rich historical literature about the special rocks. Several of the Magma Geopark localities show geological phenomena that cannot be seen anywhere else in Europe. Mining has been one of the main resources for the region for more than 250 years, especially titanium. It is easy to show the connection between the geology and major aspects of society. By looking at the geology we can learn about the region’s population, the agriculture, industry, cultural development and biodiversity. Tourists from abroad come to Norway mainly to appreciate the beautiful and untouched nature. At the same time new studies underline that tourists want to get the stories behind the landscape: the scenery alone is perceived as boring. Magma Geopark and its exciting stories are waiting to be discovered!
