World Tourism Day! Celebrating Auvergne and its riches

September 27 is World Tourism Day, an opportunity to showcase the treasures of our beautiful Auvergne region.

The Auvergne is a veritable jewel of nature, with its dormant volcanoes, sparkling lakes and verdant forests. The Parc Naturel Régional des Volcans d’Auvergne, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you’re an adventurer or just looking for some peace and quiet, the Auvergne has something for everyone. Book your next stay at our campsite near the Auvergne volcanoes !

Sustainable and responsible tourism

This year, World Tourism Day focuses on the importance of sustainable tourism. In the Auvergne region, a number of initiatives have been put in place. Everything is done to preserve the environment while welcoming visitors. Every gesture counts in protecting our natural heritage. In the end, by choosing to travel responsibly, we are contributing to the preservation of this beautiful region.

Discovering traditions and gastronomy

Auvergne is also rich in culture and tradition. Let’s take advantage of World Tourism Day to explore villages like Orcival or Besseet Saint-Anastaise, where architecture and craftsmanship come together. Don’t miss the chance to sample local specialities such as Saint Nectaire cheese, fourme d’Ambert or truffade. Each dish tells a story and reflects the authenticity of our terroir.

Local events and activities

To celebrate World Tourism Day, numerous events are being organized throughout the region. These include guided tours and craft workshops. Thanks to the local Auvergne Volcan Sancy tourist office, you can find out what’s on offer near you.
