  • From Geoheritage to Geoeducation, Geoethics and Geotourism: a Critical Evaluation of the Greek Region
    geosciences Review From Geoheritage to Geoeducation, Geoethics and Geotourism: A Critical Evaluation of the Greek Region George Zafeiropoulos 1,*, Hara Drinia 1,* , Assimina Antonarakou 1 and Nikolaos Zouros 2 1 Department of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography, University of Aegean, 81100 Mytilini, Greece; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (G.Z.); [email protected] (H.D.) Abstract: The purpose of this review is, initially, to emphasize the importance of geoenvironmental education for the promotion and preservation of geological heritage and geoethical values, and based on these, to present the current situation in Greece. Geoeducation is a broader component of environmental education which aims to promote the geological heritage of a place and its geocon- servation. It is a key integral tool for tackling environmental issues and therefore further assisting in sustainable development. Greece is known for its exceptional and rare natural beauty, as well as for the abundance of natural resources and its remarkable geological features. For this reason, six global geoparks have already been established in this country. However, its nature protection is mainly considered as the protection of biodiversity, while the term “geodiversity” is almost absent in Greek law. The importance of establishing a legal framework for the protection of geotopes is underlined by the fact that their promotion and rational management create opportunities for sustainable development, as well as to become quality tourist destinations (geotourism) through Citation: Zafeiropoulos, G.; Drinia, nature protection and education. Geodiversity can gain public attention and have a positive impact H.; Antonarakou, A.; Zouros, N.

    Athens-Mt. Olympus-Zagoria Table of Contents Trip Highlights, Map, Tour Details, Itinerary, What’s included, Itinerary Changes, Terrain, Condition Grading, Accommodation, Starting point and getting there, Food, Weather, Gear checklist, Currency & Banking, Passports, Visas Believe it or not Greece is primarily a mountainous country with more than 800 larger or smaller mountains, 53 of them with altitude exceeding the 2000m zone. The mountains, which served as natural barriers and boundaries, dictated the character of the country and have always played an important role in the life of Greeks, who incorporated them in their myths and legends as sacred places full of spiritual energy. They become "peaks of identity”, tangible and towering symbolic landscapes representing a distinctive set of community and cultural ideals. Our trip starts in Athens and the next day we drive to Litochoro, the village at the base of Mt Olympus. On the list of iconic mountains of the world, Mount Olympus surely has a place. Not only is it a geographically impressive peak, rising straight from the Aegean Sea to a height of 2,918 m, but it’s also one of great mythological importance. We will spend three days hiking in the mountain wilderness with a benefit of a bed, hot food and good company. Next, we head towards Zagoria one of the most intriguing regions of Northern Greece, and on the way we will visit Vergina, the royal burial site and the first capital of the Macedonian dynasty. From there we drive to Monodendri, and for the next three days we will hike the trails that connect the bucolic villages of Zagoria.

  • Northern Pindos the INSTITUTION of PROTECTED AREAS
    MANAGEMENT AGENCY OF VIKOS – AOOS AND PINDOS NATIONAL PARKS DISCOVERING Northern Pindos THE INSTITUTION OF PROTECTED AREAS The «introduction» of protected areas in Greece seems to go way back in history. In ancient Greece many forests were connected with religion and were considered «sacred forests» so they were strictly protected and left to evolve naturally over the centuries. The world‘ s first national park was established in 1872 in Yellowstone, USA. In Europe the protected areas created were less extensive and in their regions human populated areas and several human activities were included. The first protected areas in Greece were the Mount Olympus National Forest and the Parnassos National Forest, both founded in 1938. Aoos gorge 3 The areas of the Pan-European Network of protected areas «NATURA 2000» THE NORTHERN PINDOS NATIONAL PARK belonging to the National Park are the following: AND ITS SPECIAL ECOLOGICAL VALUE NAME DESIGNATION CODE AREA The Northern Pindos National Park was created in 2005 by Joint Ministerial Decision OF SITE OF SITE (ha) / Decree 23069/ Government Gazette 639D ‘(14/6/2005).

    DER PRÄFEKTUR EPIRUS - GRIECHENLAND Epirus Prafektur Ioannina Die Präfektur Ioannina besteht aus einer wunderschönen gebirgigen Landschaft im Nordwesten Griechenlands. Ihr Naturreichtum und ihr Kulturerbe sind trotz des Zivilisationsprozesses in all den Jahren unverändert geblieben. Für Naturliebhaber ist diese Präfektur ein Paradies. Imposante gebirgige Landschaften, tiefe Schluchten, die sich durch die strömenden Gebirgsflüsse mit ihrem glasklaren Wasser gebildet haben, seltene wilde Blumen, Bergwiesen, Gebirgsseen, bewaldete Hügel, aber auch friedliche Täler bilden eine faszinierende natürliche Umgebung , die ein geniales Biotop für seltene Säugetier- und Vogelarten, aber auch für im Wasser lebende Tiere bietet. Aufgrund dieser Vielfalt der Natur ist diese Gegend vor allem für Menschen geeignet, die das Abenteuer suchen, vor allem weil die Umgebung viele Möglichkeiten an Wassersportarten bietet. Gleichzeitig ist es eine Gegend, die Erholung von den stressigen Rhythmen des Stadtlebens bietet. Geeignet für alle, die relaxen und die Stille der Natur genießen wollen. Die Gegend hat viele Denkmäler, die Einblick in die leuchtende Geschichte der Präfektur geben. Eine Geschichte, die sowohl in ihren religiösen und archäologischen Denkmälern wieder lebendig wird, als auch in ihren traditionellen Siedlungen, den Wassermühlen und den vielen kleinen Brücken, sowie in den Sitten, der traditionellen Musik, den Volksfesten und in der Lebensart der Bewohner. Hier erlebte das Heiligtum von Dodonis seine Blütenzeit, sowie die Städte der Molossen in der Antike. Die vielen Klöster und Kirchen, die Stätten des Betens und des inneren Friedens sind, hatten ihre Blütenzeit während des Byzantinischen Reiches und während der Türkenherrschaft. Dies bezeugen vor allem die vielen Wandmalereien, in den Kirchen und Klöstern, die in der ganzen Präfektur verstreut sind. Seit Jahrtausenden vereinigen sich hier Geschichte und Legende, Geist und Kultur, sowie Kunst und volkstümliche Überlieferung.
