Abstract
Mitigation disaster is very important to develop region in many areas. This study addresses landslide mitigation for tourism development in the Baktiraja District, Humbang Hasundutan Regency. Four parameters, including slope inclination, rainfall, soil type, and land use, reveal four levels of landslide vulnerability: low, moderate, high, and very high. The method in this study used spatial analysis using ArcGIS (Geographic Information Systems) 10.8 identifies Tipang Village, Simangulampe Village, and Marbun Tonga Marbun Dolok Village as areas with the highest vulnerability, covering 77.60% of the Baktiraja District. MSP+DM analysis categorizes the tourism potential in these villages as "Embryonic." To elevate this status to "Growing" and "Self-sustaining," emphasis on improving marketability indicators through enhanced packaging, diverse promotional models, and an extensive marketing network is needed. Sustainable development efforts by the local government and active community participation in preserving local wisdom, natural attractions, and cultural heritage are crucial. Recommendations include regular updates on disaster vulnerability data, establishment of evacuation routes and shelters, early warning systems, and community training. Regulations on open land use for physical development need attention, and the government should allocate budget for tourism infrastructure. Ensuring synergy among the government, local community, and tourism stakeholders is key to sustainable tourism development in this area.
