Abstract

This paper aims to explain the level of tourist visitor participation in the development of the Silokek Geopark tourism in Sijunjung Regency. The level of participation was analyzed using Arnstein’s typology at the planning, implementation, and monitoring stages of program evaluation. In addition, it also explains the influence of visitor satisfaction, support for environmental conservation and preservation, tourism costs and participation in improving community welfare on visitor participation in the development of tourist objects. As well as the advantages of nature-based tourism objects, the risk of crime, geographic location and facilities such as tourist attractions on tourism promotion. Data obtained based on observations of visitors and using accidental sampling method. The analysis model uses simultaneous equations. The results showed that the level of visitor participation at the planning and implementation stages was included at the informational level, while at the monitoring and evaluation stage it was only at the consultation level. It was found that participation in tourism object development and participation in promoting tourism objects have a significant reciprocal relationship. Visitor satisfaction, support for environmental conservation and preservation, infrastructure, and participation in improving community welfare have a significant effect on participation in the development of tourist objects, and the advantages of nature-based tourism objects and facilities such as tourist attractions have a significant effect on tourism promotion. The results of this study recommend the Sijunjung Regency Government and the community in developing sustainable tourism objects.
