Abstract

An ecopark is understood as a space with the objective of promoting environmental care and ecological awareness through sustainable design, conceived from the reconstruction and appreciation of the natural environment and the species who habit it. The project site is located in the southwestern part of the Arauca department, in the municipality of Tame, within the "Bioparque Los Libertadores" Bosques de Paz Park. This project is divided in 7 sectors. The design proposal is situated in sector 4, "El Moriche," covering an area of 28.09 hectares, with a land area of 3.57 hectares targeted for intervention. The project implantation takes into account environmental, topographical, climatic, and local regulatory elements, designing experiences that enable exploration, habitation, sensory engagement, and diverse visuals, utilizing the natural resources that define the environment, aiming to create contemplative and recreational activities to foster environmental preservation and awareness through various elements of the architectural program, such as interactive trails, resting areas, observation tower, amphitheater, organic garden that encourages responsible planting. The extensive natural landscape of the eastern plains boasts a rich diversity of native species and is part of a highly productive ecological zone. The project's purpose is to allow users direct interaction with the landscape, flora, and fauna, promoting native cultural values, facilitating social connections, identity creation, and regional tourism development.
