Resumo: This research addresses the study of heritage as a uniting social factor. It is a case study of the Epecuén lagoon, in Carhué, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The article sets out to analyse the contextualised heritage activation process, based on an evaluation of the natural and cultural heritage resources by analysing the processes, actors and discourses used in tourism. The characteristics of the water in the lagoon were analysed from field work, rainfall analysis and historical reconstruction. We worked from a symbolic and economic appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage. This tourist territory is the product of the conjunction of the inherent qualities of the place, and as valued by a society, making it attractive.
