Mbepit Massif, located in the central part of the continental Cameroon Volcanic Line, is characterised by several geomorphosites of volcanic origin. Eight geomorphosites, namely South Rhyolitic Protrusion, South Volcano, North Rhyolitic Needle, NW cone, North Volcano, Dome-casting, Tam-chi Depression and Maar Nfou, have been selected in this structure based to their scientific and additional values. Majority of these geomorphosites have a relatively high scientific value (0.79), due to their integrity, representativeness and rarity. Regarding additional values, they have high ecological and aesthetic values, but moderate cultural value. Despite all these assets, the Mbepit Massif geomorphosites are not at the centre of any local geotourism development project. This lack of interest in geotourism explains the absence of tourist facilities in most of the sites and the low consideration of their educational interest. To raise local geotourism offer, it is imperative to draw the attention of competent authorities and the local population to the importance of geomorphological heritage; popularise geomorphosites through field trips, leaflets, websites, conferences and exhibitions; and establish a sustainable management policy for the selected geomorphological units. This initiative will create awareness and help to protect the sustainable touristic potential of the geological heritage of the Mbepit Massif.

Mbepit断层地貌岩(喀麦隆火山线)的清单和评估:地方地质旅游发展的资产

Mbepit地块位于喀麦隆大陆火山线的中部,其特征是几个火山岩地貌。根据其科学性和附加价值,已在该结构中选择了八个流变岩,分别是南流纹岩凸起,南火山岩,北流纹岩针,西北锥,北火山岩,穹顶铸模,塔姆奇凹陷和Maar Nfou。由于它们的完整性,代表性和稀有性,这些地貌大多数都具有较高的科学价值(0.79)。关于附加价值,它们具有较高的生态和美学价值,但具有中等的文化价值。尽管拥有所有这些资产,但Mbepit断层块地质变石不是任何地方地质旅游开发项目的中心。对地质旅游的缺乏兴趣解释了大多数地点缺乏旅游设施以及对教育兴趣的重视不足。为了提高当地的地质旅游资源,必须引起主管当局和当地居民对地貌遗产重要性的关注;通过实地考察,传单,网站,会议和展览来推广地变石;并为选定的地貌单位制定可持续的管理政策。该计划将提高人们的意识,并有助于保护姆贝皮特地块地质遗产的可持续旅游潜力
