Abstract :
Geotourism is one of the new sections in the geosciences based on the recognition of geophysicals or special geomorphological perspectives which has been introduced into the geographical and tourism literature with an emphasis on the designation of special and valuable tourism landforms. Combining cultural, historical and ecological heritage, this branch of tourism offers potentials for sustainable tourism planning. In this research, using the Geographic Information System (GIS) from the tourist resources and attractions of the National Park of Canalet, Potential- Suitable geotourism areas, including hiking, rock climbing, nature hiking, hiking, winter sports, nature therapies, beach resorts, intact landscapes, have been investigated. Afterwards, overlapping and overlapping information layers in the environment (GIS), TOP The fuzzy zones of each case were determined based on model t Fuzzy epsis, which includes mountaineering, climbing, climbing, and rock climbing due to the specific topography of the area, areas suitable for mountaineering and rock climbing have a wide range of study areas based on the analysis of information in the zoning map, the most attractive There are more areas in the east and west of the region with beautiful geomorphological landforms.
