description In this communication it is showed a methodological approach for the zoning of the threat of rock falling, which may be applied in projects of lineal infrastructure or urban environments. It is based on a multicriteria analysis that is supported by a solid base of data and that integrated in Arc-Gis/Arc-Info by an index of threat factors like the delimitation of the corridors of block transit, geological-geomorphologic cartography, cartography of RMR index, cartography of the susceptibility, and the volumetric analysis of talus deposits amongst others, allows to calculate for each transit corridor the index of threat, príoritize achieving for a process of risk management in short, medium and long term. The above mentioned methodology was applied with good results in Vall de Nuria that is devoted to mountain tourism, located in the eastern Pyrenees of Spain, and has its access by rack railway that crosses a quaternary glacial valley modeled in gneisses, and whose railway line has been affected several times by rock falling, putting passengers in risk and affecting the commercial service.

En esta comunicación se muestra una propuesta metodológica para la zonificación de la amenaza por caída de rocas, que puede ser aplicada en proyectos de infraestructura lineales o entornos urbanos. Se basa en un análisis multicriterio, apoyado por una sólida base de datos, que integrados en Arc-Gis/Arc-Info, a través de un índice de amenaza factores como la delimitación de corredores de tránsito de bloques, la cartografía geológico-geomorfológica, la cartografía del índice RMR, la cartografía de la susceptibilidad y el análisis volumétrico de los depósitos de talud, entre otros, permite calcular el índice de amenaza, para cada corredor de tránsito, logrando priorizarlos, para un proceso de gestión del riesgo a corto, mediano y largo plazo. La anterior metodología fue aplicada con buenos resultados en Vall de Nuria, dedicada al turismo de montaña, en los Pirineos Orientales de España, a la que se accede a través de un tren cremallera que recorre un valle glaciar cuaternario, modelado en gneises, cuya vía ha sido afectada en varias ocasiones por caída de rocas, poniendo en riesgo a las personas que se movilizan en el tren y afectando el servicio comercial.
