Under directions of E.K.S. HARINI MUNTASIB and LILIK BUDI PRASETYO. Mount Merbabu National Park is one among several new national parks in Indonesia which was established in 2004. Ecotourism activities in this area have not been properly developed by Perum Perhutani, as the past management authority, although the area is very potential to be developed as an ecotourism site for activities such as nature interpretation, apart from camping and hiking which are already carried out. With the change of the area status into a national park, the opportunity of ecotourism development is increased as the area is presently managed by a focused management authority, The Mount Merbabu National Park Office. As a part of ecotourism, nature interpretation is a mean to relate visitors to natural resources, which is an urgent need for Mount Merbabu National Park. The objective of this research is to develop an interpretation plan of vaious tracks in the Park, based on the tracks’ resources and users’ demands. The selection of user-oriented nature interpretation tracks done by using the Query Builder tool available in ArcView GIS 3.3. The synthesis of tracks’ resources and users demand resulted in 8 criteriafulfilling tracks, e.g. Selo summit, Tekelan summit, Selo II, Selo III, Tekelan IV, TWA Krinjingan Waterfall, TWA Watu Tadah Waterfall dan TWA “Dufan”. The planning of these selected tracks includes mapping and interpretation scenarios.Read More
