Abstract
This article investigates the sustainable development of the Wang Hin Lat waterfall tourist attraction, focusing on spatial design and land use. A field survey collected physical data, including topography, tourist attraction resources, facilities, land use, and access while community needs were gathered through focus group meetings, and tourist behavior was observed. The analyzed data led to proposed guidelines for tourist attraction development, emphasizing area utilization, carrying capacity, layout plan, and management. Despite the waterfall's natural beauty and provincial popularity, deficiencies in infrastructure, utilities, facilities, and land use planning contribute to congestion issues. It is a small waterfall capable of accommodating a limited number of tourists. Recommendations for Wang Hin Lat waterfall development include clearly defining and prioritizing zoning for natural areas, recreation zones, service and office areas, shops, parking, and entrances. A suggested tourist limit of 300, with access control points, aims to manage congestion. Diversifying activities, such as promoting nature, culture, and lifestyle learning, developing nature trails, and establishing clear regulations, is essential for the sustainable coexistence of tourist attraction development and nature conservation.
