Welcome to the Chablais Unesco World Geopark
A UNESCO Global Geopark is a coherent geographical entity characterised by sites and landscapes of global geological importance. Geoparks aim to promote and enhance the connections between this geological heritage and all other elements of heritage, whether natural, cultural or intangible. They are managed according to principles of protection, education and sustainable development, while raising awareness of the importance of preserving the Earth for future generations.
Geopark mediators, grouped together in an association called “Téthys Chablais”, raise awareness, share and help visitors discover the area’s heritage.
The Chablais Geopark, whose rocks bear witness to a history that began 250 million years ago, offers you a real journey through time.
