Sumario: This paper analyse the begining of protected areas in Argentina, in regards to the construction and consolidation of State and Nation in Norpatagonia. It recovers the figure of Francisco Moreno and Exequiel Bustillo, two key characters in the creation of protected areas and in the symbolic imprint to Patagonia Argentina. It is put forward that the bases of the founding ideology of National Parks, are based in these characters backgrounds, political linkages and proposals, which highlighted the role of nature as inspiration for the values of the country. In addition, the analytical category of heritage activation is used in order to delve into the question about why certain natural areas are valued as heritage of the whole nation and therefore should be preserved. The results presented here come from work with historical sources and fieldwork, as part of an investigation in the Los Lagos Department, province of Neuquén, Argentina, territory that integrates the Nahuel Huapi National Park.
