Geology for all
Geology is the study of the structure of our planet and the processes that take place on the surface and in the subsurface. The Swiss Geological Survey offers free geological excursions and easy-to-understand publications for anyone who wants to know more about geology and geological topics.


Thematic excursions
After a series of geological excursions offered over the past 13 years, the Swiss Geological Survey of swisstopo has decided not to renew this offer from 2026 onwards.

Via GeoAlpina
Via GeoAlpina is an international project of the Alpine countries. The route runs from Trieste to Monaco and explains the specific geological features to hikers along the way.
