ABSTRAKTaman Nasional Gunung Ciremai (TNGC) di Jawa Barat merupakan kawasan konservasi dan salah satu wisata alam di Indonesia. Pengelolaan Taman Nasional Gunung Ciremai (TNGC) Jalur Pendakian Apuy dikelola oleh Mitra Pariwisata Gunung Ciremai (MPGC) Argamukti dan didampingi oleh Seksi Pengelola Taman Nasional II (SPTN II) resort Argalingga. Menjadi destinasi pendakian gunung oleh wisatawan menimbulkan permasalahan tersendiri bagi TNGC sebagai sebuah kawasan hutan. Permasalahan yang timbul antara lain adalah sampah yang dibawa oleh pengunjung taman nasional yang tidak terkelola dengan baik. Selain itu, keterbatasan pengetahuan dan keterbatasan dana yang dihadapi oleh pengelola menambah pelik permasalahan persampahan di area wisata ini. Salah satu alasan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah belum adanya penelitian mengenai Willingness to pay (WTP) untuk pengelolaan persampahan di Taman Nasional Gunung Ciremai. Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini dimaksudkan untuk menentukan nilai WTP dan nilai tersebut nantinya dijadikan sebagai informasi awal biaya untuk pengelolaan persampahan di Taman Nasional Gunung Ciremai Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa rataan WTP responden wisatawan berdasarkan CVM adalah sebesar Rp. 13.646,- atau Rp. 200.996.776 /tahun.Kata kunci: Willingness to Pay, Travel Cost Method, Contingent Valuation Method, Taman Nasional Gunung Ciremai. ABSTRACTMount Ciremai National Park (TNGC) in West Java is a conservation area and one of nature tourism in Indonesia. The Apuy Track in Mount Ciremai National Park are managed by Argamukti’sCiremai Mountain Ascent Community (MPGC) and accompanied by Section II of The National Park Management (STPN II) Argalingga resort. Being a mountain climbing destination raises its own problems for TNGC as a forest. The problems that arise include visitors wastes in national parks are not properly managed. Furthermore, limited knowledge and funds which is faced by the management are increasing the waste problems in this tourism area. One of the reason of this study is the research on Willingness to Pay (WTP) for solid waste management still rare in Mount Ciremai National Park. Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) are used to determine the WTP value and it will be used as first information for waste management costs in Mount Ciremai National Park. The results of this research shown that the average WTP of tourist respondents based on CVM is Rp. 13.646,- or Rp. 200.996.776,- /year.Keywords: Willingness to Pay, Travel Cost Method, Contingent Valuation Method, Mount Ciremai National Park.

Recreational Benefits

This study, which is among the first in Pakistan to value recreational benefits, estimates the benefits of the Margalla Hills National Park near Islamabad. The study examines how much park visitors are willing to pay to visit the park. Annual benefits from the park are considerable—the total annual consumer surplus or economic benefit obtained from recreation in the park is approximately Rs. 23 million (US $ 0.4 million). Various factors influence the value visitors obtain from the park — these include travel cost, household income, and the quality of the park. Improvements in the quality of the park are estimated to increase recreational benefits by 39%. The study recommends that a park entrance fee of Rs. 20 per person be introduced, which could be utilized for park management. This would generate nearly Rs. 11 million in revenues annually, a sizable amount of money that represents about 4% of the annual budget allocated to the environment sector in Pakistan.

Monopoly Rents

This paper reports on a survey carried out among visitors to Etosha, Namibia, in May 2002. We use the contingent valuation method to estimate foreign tourists willingness to pay for visiting the park. We find that the Namibian government could raise park fees substantially and increase profits from foreign tourists by approximately N$ 2,3 million per year. If fees were raised in collusion with other governments, in order to avoid competition between countries in the region, profits could presumably be increased even further. However, the survey used to collect data on tourists willingness to pay also indicated dissatisfaction with current management of in-park resorts, and improved management of these resorts would probably be crucial for the success of any new tariff scheme.
