Plaine des Cafres
Geography
Located between the two mountain ranges of Piton des Neiges and Piton de la Fournaise, la Plaine des Cafres is separated from La Plaine-des-Palmistes by the "col de Bellevue", a mountain pass culminating at 1630 m. The RF5 road leading to the Piton de la Fournaise volcano starts from la Plaine des Cafres.
Economy
Due to abundant flat lands covered with meadows, bovine farming is well developed (most of bovines grown on the island are at Plaine des Cafres). The many cow pastures give the area its Alpine-like charm.
