Abstract

The development of geoparks and tourism activities can significantly alter the spatial elements within a geopark. This study examines changes in spatial elements at Nglanggeran Ancient Volcano within the Gunung Sewu-UNESCO Global Geopark, caused by geopark development and tourism. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with a spatial element analysis, the study finds that the process of spatial change is influenced by non-fixed elements, with differences in the process due to variations in tourism and geopark development activities. The study identifies external factors, such as tourism, as key drivers of spatial changes. The findings highlight the potential for tourism to increase income through the development of tourism service businesses. The study contributes to advancing knowledge of the relationship between geopark development, tourism, and spatial changes, and offers insights for the sustainable development of geoparks and tourism in the future.
