What belongs in Geology & Earth Science?

Geology spots need explanation of what visitors are seeing. Name formations, surface, access and why people should stay on paths.

Geology & Earth Science covers spots where this theme is central. The place should be recognizable, visitable and useful for someone actively looking for this kind of location.

Use the 6 subcategories to describe the place more precisely. Examples include Bijzondere rotsformaties, Fossiel-vindplaatsen, Volcanic landscapes, and Duinen & zandverstuivingen.

Criteria for this category

Choose Geology & Earth Science when the activity, function or setting of the spot directly fits this theme. The description and photo should make it clear why the place belongs here.

If several labels could apply, choose the subcategory that most concretely describes what someone can do or see at the location.

What does not belong here?

A place does not automatically belong in Geology & Earth Science because it is beautiful, quiet or popular. The main feature must genuinely match this category.

Use another category when the place is mainly about food, views, history, sport, nature or public facilities and {name} is only a side detail.
