Geopark Schelde Delta totals six storylines. Each storyline is different and wanders in her own manner through the different regions. You can filter in this map and see them move.
Over time, the sea and the Scheldt have left their mark on the landscape and are still important factors of change today, in addition to human activity. Nowhere in the world is the interaction between natural processes and cultural history as present as here.
As such, this estuary has everything it needs to be a UNESCO Global Geopark 2.0. because, like other Geoparks, it provides insight into the geological evolution of the past, but also uses it to familiarize residents and visitors with the climate challenge today and in the future.
Geopark Schelde Delta is a network organization that translates and connects the importance and added value of the geological qualities with organizations that are already active in the area.
Because of its location, the area of the Flemish-Dutch Geopark Schelde Delta has always been a naturally dynamic region, where the interaction between man and geology has shaped the contemporary landscape. The river Scheldt with its estuaries forms the blue thread through the area.
The UNESCO label - compare it to a Michelin star - opens doors; to international attention and scientific research, to regional profiling and to a new dimension in tourism and recreation in the area. Every reason to join forces. We challenge you to actively contribute to geopark status for our delta region. Click on the arrow.
