This rural area is already a tourist attraction, with 356,000 visitors and 2 million overnight stays in 1992. The LAG is seeking to consolidate and diversify this existing tourism trade.
Volcanology is the obvious theme to develop.
The aim is to create a tourist, scientific and educational centre revolving around the theme of volcanoes. It should help extend tourism to new target groups. Guided visits are organised every weekend from March to September.
