Resumen
This study supports the usefulness of geomorphological mapping as a tool for gaining an
understanding of the landscape and assessing natural heritage. Mapping provides an essentially
scientific document with great potential for the diffusion of geomorphological knowledge in that it
provides a guide to the user of natural protected areas as well as serving as a tool for its management
regarding geotourist itineraries, geodiversity, and geomorphosites. The example of the Valderejo
Natural Park is presented, which is located in Álava (Spain) and whose geomorphology has been
mapped following a methodology based on fieldwork, desktop work, and the use of Geographic
Information Systems. The map’s applications are presented in the areas of tourism, geotourist maps,
and for the assessment of natural heritage, geodiversity, and geomorphosites.
