Algeria does not count any classified geoparks despite its wealthy geological heritage, particularly in Tamanrasset province (southern Algeria). The economic activities in this province require promotion and diversification apart from the oil and gas industry. While tourism can be a crucial driver of its local development, tourist arrivals and infrastructures, especially in villages, indicate how underdeveloped this sector is. The present paper aims to evaluate, for the first time, both natural and cultural potential, targeting a possible geopark classification proposal in this province to boost its tourism and local development. The present study’s results highlighted a concentration of geological and non-geological features (archaeology, architecture, intangible cultural heritage, biodiversity) in two (2) regions of Tamanrasset (Hoggar and Tidikelt). Both areas host the largest number of villages, favoring local inhabitants’ involvement in local development and tourism activities.

阿尔及利亚尽管拥有丰富的地质遗产，但不包括任何分类的地质公园，特别是在塔曼拉塞特省（阿尔及利亚南部）。除石油和天然气工业外，该省的经济活动还需要促进和多样化。虽然旅游业可能是其当地发展的关键驱动力，但游客的到来和基础设施，特别是在乡村地区，表明该行业的欠发达程度。本文旨在首次评估自然和文化潜力，针对该省可能的地质公园分类提案，以促进其旅游业和地方发展。本研究结果强调了地质和非地质特征（考古，建筑，非物质文化遗产，塔玛拉塞特（Hoggar和Tidikelt）两（2）个地区的生物多样性）。这两个地区的村庄数量最多，这有利于当地居民参与当地发展和旅游活动。
