Ecotourism Adventure Tourism : Associated Regional Tourism (Ecoturismo De Aventura: Un Turismo Regional Asociativo) (Spanish)

Adventure tourism began in Colombia in 1994 in San Gil (Santander). The positive results gave rise to new sites in various municipalities close to Bogotá. These experiences have led to training being offered to people in different departments of the country, with a view to forming ecotourism and adventure tourism businesses that offer new development possibilities. These two forms of tourism require a concerted effort on the part of the local communities. Sustainability must be assured and real benefits offered to local residents
