Egon Mountain, Management Strategies, TourismAbstract
Egon mountain possesses significant potential as an ecotourism destination due to its breathtaking landscapes, unique geological formations, and rich biodiversity. This study examines key aspects influencing its tourism development, including accessibility, facilities, and attractions. Findings indicate that while Egon mountain offers a remarkable adventure experience, challenges such as limited infrastructure, inadequate sanitation, and minimal safety measures hinder its growth as a sustainable tourist site. Visitors often rely on self-preparation and local guides to navigate the trails safely. However, the presence of an active volcanic crater, natural hot springs, diverse flora and fauna, and cultural significance make it an attractive destination. To enhance its tourism appeal, strategic management efforts focusing on infrastructure improvements, environmental sustainability, and local community engagement are essential. By addressing these challenges, Egon mountain can develop into a sustainable ecotourism site that balances conservation with enriching visitor experiences.
