The term accessibility refers to the condition and standards to be met by spaces, environments, goods, products, processes and services as well as objects, instruments and devices to be used by people with disabilities to promote safety and comfort in the most autonomous and natural way possible in adventure activities. The objective of this research is to analyze the relationship between accessibility for people with disabilities and adventure sports in the canton. For its development, a methodology with a non-experimental design with a cross-sectional, qualitative approach and a case study scope was taken into account, using as an instrument the interview that is structured according to variables, dimensions and indicators: the same that are exposed in 11 questions. In addition, an observation sheet was used to analyze, measure and evaluate a specific objective. The results of the research showed that the adventure sports suitable for people with disabilities are: canopy, bridge jumping, tarabita and rafting, which are offered by the tourism operators of the canton. It is concluded that there is not a great accessibility to perform these adventure activities, in addition there is no tourism promotion strategy, for this reason the proposal was the implementation of a QR code to promote these adventure sports for people with disabilities, thus achieving an effective promotion and boost the economy of the canton Baños de Agua Santa.
