Tourism in Chile’s protected areas is increasingly required by citizens, who are looking for an approach to nature, seeking to live an experience that is enriched by interaction with local communities. The Río Cruces and Chorocamayo Nature Sanctuary (SNSR) (which corresponds to a category of protection in Chilean jurisdiction) was also declared as the first Ramsar Site in Chile, named Carlos Anwandter (1981) (SN SR). It is the first wetland of international importance in the country and is widely visited in the region. In this context, the protected area team has initiated collaborative work with local tour guides who offer navigation and guiding services for the different watercourses that make up the wetland, grouped in the Association of River Guides of Valdivia.
