“…Geotourism as a form of cognitive tourism, where the main purpose of traveling is to discover and learn about forms and phenomena related to abiotic nature (e.g., Hose, 1995Hose, , 2000Hose, , 2008Hose, , 2011Joyce, 2006;Dowling, 2006, 2010;Ólafsdóttir, 2019). is rapidly developing in mountainous areas, including in individual parts of the Western Carpathians (e.g., Krobicki and Golonka, 2008;Golonka et al, 2012;Štrba et al, 2014;Chrobak, 2015Chrobak, , 2016Kubalíková and Kirchner, 2016;Szczęch et al, 2016;Chrobak and Bąk, 2019;Kubalíková, 2019). Undoubtedly, the geodiversity map can be an ideal background for the elements of abiotic nature that are attractive for tourism and are characterized by high cognitive, educational, esthetic, ecological, and economic values.…”
