Participants of this year's workshop can join us for an exciting field trip to the Troodos UNESCO Global Geopark on Friday, 3rd of December 2021. 

Trip to Troodos UNESCO Global Geopark

Date: Friday, 3rd December 2021

Time: 7.30am - 5.30pm

Location: Troodos UNESCO Global Geopark

The Troodos Mountain Range, which is the main geomorphologic feature of the island of Cyprus. Covering an area of about 3200 km2 with its highest peak, Olympus, that has an elevation of 1951 metres, its well-preserved structure and rock sequence makes the Troodos ophiolite unique in relation to the other Tethyan ophiolites. 

The field trip will provide an opportunity for participants to not only delve further into the complex regional geology, the development and evolution of structural styles, depositional systems and their implications for prospectivity, and further potential of the Eastern Mediterranean, but also the geological evolution of the Troodos ophiolite.

*Field trip participation is already included in registration costs.

More information on the full programme will be available soon!
