The parish of Chorocopte, located in the canton of Cañar, province of Cañar, has scenic charms reflected in its natural attractions that are not used for tourism and are not frequented; by virtue of this, the idea of this intervention work arises, focused on proposing nature activities such as hiking, horseback riding and camping, to promote tourism in the place. An analysis of the current situation in Chorocopte was carried out in order to obtain information through document reviews, field trips and interviews. Natural attractions such as El Estero, El Tayta Buerán and La Mama Zhinzhona were selected, where proposals for tourist routes and camping sites with signage were developed. Finally, tourism promotion strategies were proposed with promotional materials and distribution channels that help in the publicity of these activities. This research contributes to nature tourism within the parish of Chorocopte, using its natural resources as a means to generate new alternatives for leisure and enjoyment.
