In recent years Boquete Nahuelpan has become a tourist attraction through the trip that offers tourists the route of the narrow gauge train, known as the "Trochita", in the Northwest of the province of Chubut. However, little mention is made of the history of Boquete Nahuelpan, which is marked by a massive eviction by means of which all the families settled there since the end of the 19th century were expelled. Currently, there are a few families who could access the land again after a process of "partial reparation", in which less land was returned to many fewer people, and the "territorial recoveries" that some families made in the past years. The following work will address the relationship between tourism, heritage and territory from the question of how the process of patrimonialization of the Trochita took place, placing the focus on the complex "tourism process" for which Boquete Nahuelpan constitutes a " tourist attraction "at the end of the '90s and how part of the community is reorganized today around this activity from the incipient development of rural community tourism. This way, it will be deepened how, from the patrimonialization of the old train and the incorporation of the Boquete Nahuelpan Station to the tourist circuit, negotiations and conflict with the State take place, where certain indigenous practices are legitimized and others are made invisible in a context of territorialities in dispute
