Le Tampon

Few towns in Réunion have a history as closely tied to highland agriculture as Le Tampon. Set on the island’s inland slopes, it rises from lower sugarcane-growing areas toward the cooler uplands around Plaine des Cafres. Roads from this part of Réunion lead towards Piton de la Fournaise, one of the world’s most active volcanoes. In Bourg-Murat, the Maison du Volcan interprets the island’s volcanic activity, while the Miel Vert agricultural fair reflects the importance of farming in the uplands.
