Take time to appreciate some awe-inspiring landscapes with a geological eye. See how over time the geography of the UK has developed to reveal magnificent coasts, breathtaking valleys and spectacular horizons, with a history all of their own.
From the ancient volcanoes of the Lake District to the chalk cliffs of the Sussex Coast, discover magnificent geological scenery and get a glimpse of what's under our feet as we walk.
There is so much to discover. Enjoy the wonders of the Yorkshire Dales, offering an abundance of rolling hills, wild valleys and glorious waterfalls; explore Somerset’s dramatic Cheddar Gorge and its remarkable caves, or perhaps walk Cornwall’s Land’s End peninsula, with its quaint fishing villages, striking rock formations and wonderful seascapes.
Visit the legendary rocks of the Giant’s Causeway, the result of a volcanic eruption 60 million years ago and renowned for its polygonal columns of layered basalt. It’s the only World Heritage Site in Northern Ireland and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The Isle of Wight’s natural wonders are a spectacular sight for explorers on foot, with over 500 miles of marked paths. The Needles stretch along the island’s backbone in a high chalk ridge, offering an impressive shoreline and fantastic coastal paths, fringed by the sparkling English Channel.
