The Gorce Mountains National Park is located on the southern part of the Małopolska Province in Poland. Despite the lack of spectacular geological attractions it is a very good site to promote Earth Sciences knowledge and especially to educate in geology. The example of the on-day excursion going along the touristic trails within The Gorce Mountains National Park is being described in the presented paper. The author described great diversity of the geological and geomorphological elements, presenting educational values.

Gorczański Park Narodowy znajduje się w południowej części Małopolski. Mimo braku spektakularnych atrakcji geologicznych jest bardzo dobrym miejscem do promowania wiedzy z zakresu nauk o ziemi, a w szczególności geologii. W poniższym artykule opisano przykład jednodniowej wycieczki, przebiegającej wzdłuż szlaków Gorczańskiego Parku Narodowego, w której wykazano dużą różnorodność elementów geologicznych i geomorfologicznych.

Geological investigation of archaeological sites conducted by the author from 1979 in a vast area from Upper Egypt up to the Delta are presented (Hierakonpolis, Armant, Qurna - Deir el-Bahari, el-Tarif, Fayum - Qasr el-Sagha, Tell el-Farkha) in the study. There are described general (united) geological profiles done on the basis of field observation of both archaeological and natural outcrops (a lot of archaeological as well as natural outcrops). Obtained data help to perform correlation of sediments between described sites and propose reconstruction of paleo-environment and climate conditions at the phase of Late Neolithic - Early Dynastic transition. The mentioned observation and reconstruction has led to conclusion, that at the phase of the transition climate was extremely dry. This dry climatic phase is the factor, that most probably constitute very difficult conditions for life and agriculture, which obligated the Egyptians to the reorganization of life, i.e. was the reason for creation of dynastic Egypt.

Geomorphological and geological studies in the vicinity of a Neolithic stronghold at Osłonki in Kujawy region revealed such landforms as ground moraine, glacial trough, and biogenic plains. They were formed under the impact of direct accumulation of an ice-sheet, its meltwater, and biogenic accumulation. Detailed analyses of the relief and deposits using palaeobiological studies made it possible to reconstruct relief development and environmental changes in the Pleni-Vistulian, Late Vistulian and Holocene. The landscape from the times when prehistoric man occupied this area is presented.
