Abstract

Community-based nature tourism development is a strategic approach to fostering social and economic progress in rural areas. This study analyzes the development challenges of Jantur Mapan Waterfall tourism in Linggang Mapan Village, West Kutai Regency, and examines the roles of stakeholders involved. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation using purposive sampling. Data were analyzed through descriptive qualitative techniques. The findings reveal that although local communities participate in tourism management and activities, the implementation remains suboptimal. Key constraints include limited facilities and infrastructure, the absence of a systematic development plan, low human resource capacity, and weak stakeholder coordination. From Talcott Parsons’ Structural Functional Theory (AGIL) perspective, the functions of adaptation, goal attainment, and integration are not yet balanced, despite the persistence of mutual cooperation values, service orientation, and commitment to sustainability. The study concludes that stronger synergy among the village government, tourism managers, local communities, and regional authorities is essential through structured planning, capacity building, and institutional strengthening to achieve sustainable tourism development and enhance local welfare.
