For the first time in the Czech Republic, the concept of geomorphosites was used for assessment of geomorphological localities. The authors excerpted methods for the assessment of geomorphosites, which are used in some West and South European countries and have elaborated the special methodology for Czech ambient. Presented methodical approach consists of four main stages: i) identification of the significant geomorphologic sites, ii) detailed geomorphological inventory of selected sites, iii) numerical evaluation of sites, iv) final synthesis (classification of the sites, management proposals, possible use of the site, proposed legislative protection). The authors propose to include the presented approach in a part of the environmental geomorphology.
