The application of collaborative governance in the development of the Bayah Dome Geopark as a sustainable tourism destination is a crucial step toward aligning the interests of various stakeholders to achieve tourism rooted in conservation and economic empowerment. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of the process, structural and cultural barriers, and strategies for strengthening collaborative governance in the development of sustainable tourism at the Bayah Dome Geopark in Lebak Regency. A qualitative descriptive research method with a case study approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with pentahelix stakeholders (government, academia, local communities, business operators, and the media), supplemented by observations and document analysis. The findings indicate that the collaborative process has successfully fostered trust and a shared understanding of geotourism, facilitated by leadership that minimizes power asymmetries. Nevertheless, implementation faces challenges, including disparities in resource capacity, bureaucratic sectoral ego across government agencies, and a short-term profit-oriented mindset among some business operators. The study concludes that strengthening the legal framework through the institutionalization of collaborative Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), the establishment of fair benefit-sharing schemes for indigenous communities, and the implementation of integrated budgeting is essential to ensuring ecological and economic sustainability within the Bayah Dome Geopark region.
