Description
Summary:This article analyzed the feasibility of creating an agro-tourist cof-fee route for the municipality of Gramalote (Norte de Santander, Colombia). The proposal is made due to the income difficulties of the rural people, a situation that has created an enormous economic gap between the rural and urban areas. In this same sense, the munici-pality of Gramalote and its surrounding villages have traditionally been producers of the grain and have a rich cultural and gastronomic heritage, as well as a privileged geography that makes it a potential attraction for people seeking a different form of tourism, based on tranquility and clean air, as well as the search for new experiences. Likewise, the declaration of the coffee-growing cultural landscape by UNESCO as a world heritage site has contributed to the interest of many tourists, especially foreigners, in this type of activity. The general objective of the research was to identify the competitive bets for the agro-tourist route of the coffee sector in the municipality of Gramalote Norte de Santander, concluding that it is economically vi-able, and the residents of the areas are interested in the possibility of its creation due to the possibility of becoming an excellent source of income, allowing them to improve their quality of life.
