Cover Story: The Tuchola Forest Biosphere Reserve constitutes one of the largest forest complexes in northern Poland, which belongs to the plains of Central Europe. We provided the geotourist evaluation of 32 geosites. The evaluated geosites represent both perfect examples of typical features for the physiography of the TFBR, as a young glacial landscape, e.g., erratic boulders, glaciofluvial landforms, postglacial landforms, and lakes or peatbogs, as well as values proving the uniqueness of the area. We distinguished areas of high concentration of geosites, proposed geosites that require improving their accessibility, and noticed the influence of whirlwinds on changes in geotourism attractiveness.
