The objective of this work is to evaluate how the territorial geography of the Latin American Integration Route contributes to the construction and formation of a route for birdwatching tourism, with the enhancement of landscapes, cultural practices, territorialities and socio-biodiversity as a whole represented in the Route. The study area involves Brazilian, Paraguayan, Argentine and Chilean municipalities directly affected by the Bioceanic Route Corridor. The territory covered by the Latin American Integration Route is covered by several sites suitable for the practice of birdwatching tourism, especially the protected areas in its direct and indirect influence area. The territory includes environments such as: Cerrado, Pantanal, Atlantic Forest, Dry and Humid Chaco, Yungas, Monte Desert, High Altitude Grasslands, Puna, High Andean Lagoons, Desert and Desert Valleys, Pacific Coast and Tamarugales. The great variety of landscape characteristics makes it an excellent route for ornithological tourism, ready to be explored and contemplated in its innumerable possibilities.
