The Australian Geoscience Council Inc (AGC) is the Peak Council of geoscientists in Australia. In 2024, the AGC decided to pursue the implementation of geotourism strategies through a rebranded entity to be known as Geotourism Australia.
Geotourism is sustainable tourism that sustains and celebrates the Earth’s natural features, its landscapes, rocks, fossils, and landforms as well as its flora and wildlife, nd connects them with cultural stories, communities, and local economies. It’s about understanding how geology shapes not only the land, but also the lives of the people who live there.
“Celebrating the stories written in Australia’s landscapes” beautifully captures the essence of geotourism and aligns perfectly with the Australian Geoscience Council’s vision.
