MUNGARAY, Alejandro; LOPEZ, Sergio Bernardino; MOCTEZUMA, Patricia  y  ARROYO COSSIO, A. Julián. Potentialities of a cross-border hiking route in Baja California, Mexico. Estud. front [online]. 2022, vol.23, e097.  Epub 05-Jul-2022. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.2213097.

The proposal organization of an open hiking trail in Baja California (BC) is proposed to articulate the different particular offers of tourism, some linked to the United States, within the network of rural roads that link BC from La Rumorosa, until arrival at Valle de Guadalupe. It is assumed that it is the transboundary context that generates sources of demand, but also the growing influence of the new paradigms that promote sustainable regional development. The definition of the route is in a qualitative-descriptive approach with different data collection instruments, such as routes, measurements and questionnaires. At least five spaces that are serving foreign and border populations were detected (El Topo, El Sausalito, Bethel, Escuela de Energía Solar, La Ponderosa), which by promoting them within an articulated scheme of social business, can generate a dynamic of regional growth.

Palabras llave : hiking tourist route; cross-border adventure tourism; sustainable development; trekking.
