This research is intended to verify validity of the contingent valuation theory for ex post projects, using information provided by "Ronda del Sinú" Park users in Monteria city, Colombia. An econometric, descriptive statistical analysis is carried out, which generates a trend to pay COP$6,100 a month by each user.
