Abstract
Lumajang Regency in East Java Province has significant potential for tourism development due to its intersection with the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (TNBTS). The purpose of this research is to assess the Environmental Carrying Capacity (DDTL) of toruism area to provide a foundation for sustainable tourism development planning in Lumajang Regency. The research focuses on three tourist destinations: Ranu Pane, Wotgalih Beach, and Tumpak Sewu Waterfall. The method used is the DDTL calculation approach by Cifuentes (1992), which includes Physical Carrying Capacity (PCC), Real Carrying Capacity (RCC), and Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC). Data was collected through observation, literature study, and interviews with key stakeholders. The analysis results display the PCC, RCC, and ECC values in sequence for each location: Ranu Pane (9,941; 1,228; 1,228), Wotgalih Beach (1,641; 1,068; 1,068), and Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (312; 25; 25). The ECC value can serve as a metric for measuring the DDTL status of tourist locations in comparison to the average number of tourists. Ranu Pane and Wotgalih Beach have an ECC value greater than 1,000 when compared to the average number of tourists, which ranges from 500 to 900 people per day. Therefore, their status has not yet exceeded the DDTL. In contrast, Tumpak Sewu Waterfall has an ECC value of less than 50 with an average number of tourists exceeding 100 people per day, and its status is classified as having exceeded the DDTL limit. These results can be considered by the Lumajang Regency Government when planning the development of tourist destinations.
