Abstract

Sustainable tourism is a crucial challenge for natural tourism destinations facing the risk of environmental damage due to increased visitor numbers. This study aims to analyze visitor perceptions of the development of Buttu Kabobong Nature Tourism in Enrekang Regency as a sustainable tourism destination. Using descriptive qualitative research methods, data was collected through observation, documentation, and in-depth interviews with tourists and managers. The results indicate that visitors have a positive perception of the unique landscape, but also provide critical comments on waste management and suboptimal supporting facilities. Although tourism activities have had a significant economic impact on local communities, the threat of erosion of hiking trails and the lack of environmental education for tourists remain major obstacles. The practical significance of this study is that it can serve as evaluation material for local governments and managers to tighten environmental regulations and improve service standards. Academically, this article contributes to the literature on sharia tourism and sustainability by integrating tourist perceptions as an indicator of the success of nature-based destination management in South Sulawesi.
