In this research, at first, map of ecotourism indicators including WDI, EAI, ERI, IFI and EDI was developed in Dena County. Then, potential areas of ecotourism development using the linear weighted average method and calculating the relative weight of the indicators through the hierarchical analysis process and adopting various decision-making strategies and applying ordered weights are identified and prioritized. The difference in the area allocated to various classes of ecotourism reflects the role of different decision-making strategies in determining the capability and assigning different degrees of suitability to a region for the development of ecotourism.One can define an infinite range of possible solutions that, in terms of riskiness, at the end of it, is the Boolean OR , and at the other end it is the Boolean logic of AND which all criteria must be met for the suitability of an area for ecotourism.
