This administrative region covers approximately 2,232 square kilometers and serves as an important cultural and economic hub in the Minangkabau highlands. The regency is named after Mount Marapi, which is locally known as Gunung Agam, and this active volcano dominates the landscape while holding significant cultural importance for the local Minangkabau people.

With a population of approximately 530,000 people according to recent estimates, the regency maintains a diverse economy based on agriculture, tourism, and small-scale industries. The capital city of Lubuk Basung serves as the administrative center and main commercial hub, while other important towns include Bukittinggi, though the city itself maintains separate administrative status.
