The study is supported by a fieldwork conducted in 2018, with the review of historical, geographical, population and field income background mainly in the Bolivian international border. Semi-structured interviews were applied to officials associated with border control and transportation, in addition to registering observations, photographs and informal conversations. Three interpretative approaches are proposed as a research result: the first is distant and historical for both cases; the second is proposed on an urban scale for Puerto Quijarro, analyzing its morphology and a mural; and the third approach is proposed with an intersubjective perspective for Guayaramerín. In conclusion, border and waterscapes allow to identify metaphors such as: isolation, wall, wall and island, which problematize the relationship between society and nature in this water border. El artículo tiene por objetivo desarrollar la noción de paisaje hídrico fronterizo en Puerto Quijarro y Guayaramerín, ciudades bolivianas localizadas al límite internacional con Brasil. El estudio se sostiene en un trabajo de campo realizado en 2018, con la revisión de antecedentes históricos, geográficos, poblacionales y de ingresos a terreno en el linde boliviano principalmente. Se aplicaron entrevistas semiestructuradas a funcionarios asociados al control y al transporte fronterizos, además de registrar observaciones, fotografías y conversaciones informales. Como resultado se proponen tres abordajes: el primero es distante e histórico para ambos casos; el segundo se plantea a escala urbana para Puerto Quijarro, analizando su morfología y un mural; y el tercer abordaje se plantea con una perspectiva intersubjetiva para Guayaramerín. En conclusión, los paisajes hídricos fronterizos permiten identificar narrativas sobre algunas metáforas: aislamiento, muralla, mural e isla, mismas que problematizan la relación entre sociedad y naturaleza en estas fronteras hídricas.
