          Abstract

          Se identificaron los gustos recreativos (deporte, actividades familiares, ver el paisaje, actividades de relajación, otras) y preferencias del visitante del Parque Hundido (frecuencia, horarios, días de visita y acompañamiento), posteriormente se analizaron a través de correlación canónica no lineal y modelos de regresión logística. Las actividades más reportadas fueron: deporte, relajación, ver paisaje y actividades familiares y como preferencias de visita principales: acudir acompañados, en las mañanas y en fines de semana y con una frecuencia de una a cinco o más veces al mes. El análisis de correlación canónica no lineal evidenció que el parque es un espacio de recreación individual y familiar, con diversos usos recreativos y preferencias del visitante relacionadas con su perfil sociodemográfico. El análisis de modelos logísticos permitió establecer que existen relaciones estadísticas significativas gustos/preferencias y categorías de: edad, sexo, acompañamiento, ingreso familiar, residencia y si el visitante está casado. Además, los visitantes perciben problemas como: inseguridad, calidad del parque deficiente y molestias con otros visitantes, especialmente aquellos que llevan perros. Consecuentemente es necesario que los administradores desarrollen un plan recreativo consensuado socialmente y que permita afrontar los problemas y necesidades detectadas.

          Translated abstract

          The recreational uses (sports, family activities, viewing the landscape, relaxation activities and others) and visitors preferences (frequency, time, days and accompaniment) of Parque Hundido were studied using a nonlinear canonical correlation and logistic regression models. The principal activities that have been reported were: recreational sport, sports, family activities, landscape gazing, relaxation activities. Main visitor preferences were: coming together at mornings and on weekends with a frequency of one to five or more times a month. The analysis of nonlinear canonical correlation showed that the park is a place for individual and family recreation, with different uses and preferences related with the socio-demographic profile of visitors. The analysis of logistic models showed that there are significant statistical relationships between recreational uses and visitor preferences with categories such as: age, sex, accompaniment, family income, residence and if the visitor is married. In addition, visitors perceive the following problems: insecurity, poor quality of the park and inconvenience to other visitors, especially those who have dogs. Therefore, it is necessary that managers develop a recreational plan and social consensus that will address the problems and necessities identified.
