The changes brought by environmental concerns underpin a new paradigm in which change regional development processes in relation to tourist locations. Currently, in order to a change perspective, a tourist area aims the new global context, such as: the economic issue, which requires an articulation in favor of corporate interests, the social and environmental factors, that in a special shape allow to meet the aspirations of the contemporary regional development. These contemporary articulation factors enable regional development is based on different models that address sustainability, and provide study about the institutions as state, organizations and society. In this scenario, which involves the perspective of the new paradigm, the sustainable regional development (SRD), is that this study may suggest studying cities of Gramado, Canela and Nova Petrópolis, exponents of the tourism sector in the Region of Hortênsias/ RS. This study aims to verify the impact of environmental, economic and social variables, from the perception of the representatives of the state, society and organizations in the process of sustainable regional development in tourist cities of the Region of Hortênsias in Rio Grande do Sul.

The survey instrument is configured in the form of structured questionnaires, and aims to assess how the target audience satisfaction regarding the economic, social and environmental aspects of sustainable regional development in the Region of Hortênsias. As a result it was found that the economic, social and environmental model adapted from Chow and Chen (2011) affects positively the SRD.
