Its vast natural expanses provide countless isolated trekking circuits and great geological wonders that offer unmatched eco-tourism potential. Its towns are rich in cultural treasures, carefully preserved through time. The Fouta Djalon Plateau region offers some of the most incredible nature areas in the world.
