The geologic and geomorphological diversity of South Africa, the spectacular landscapes that result, and their internationally important ecological and cultural/archaeological associations, all make the landscapes of South Africa prime sites for geoheritage and geotourism. To date, however, there has been little work to develop this potential. This chapter describes examples of sites where geoheritage and geotourism activities have been developed in South Africa, and how other scenic South African landscapes can enhance their geoheritage and geotourism potential.
