Result of the globalization and metropolization, the demand for natural spaces is increasingly important, either for its economic exploitation, its urbanization, and/or socio-environmental valorization. Therefore, the management of natural spaces requires a multiscale territorial perspective that favors a multifunctionality that integrates the interests of the different actors. Is what we are developing under the Project Innova CORFO No. 08CTU01-08 "New Destinations / Products Nature Tourism and Special Interest for the Region of Valparaiso, Chile", implemented by the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaiso, during the period 2008 - 2012. The application of the multicriteria decision-making paradigm has opened an interesting methodological way to treat problems of Land Management, determining the most suitable places for the location of activities/services for rural and nature tourism. The territorial analysis model with applied GIS has allowed to quantify the territory in suitability degrees for tourism, which would consolidate an offer, less sensitive to seasonality and help to position the Biosphere Reserve (MAB) La Campana – Lago Peñuelas as an emerging tourist destination. This orients the characterization of the MaB tourist destination and facilitates co-design and co-construct of new tourism products based on the capabilities and use of the territories of local aspirations, supporting management plans of MAB Reserves to ensure the populations, more sustainable development.
