Abstract

Karanganyar Regency is one of the regencies in Central Java. Since it is located in a highland area and directly adjacent to East Java Province, it supports expanding tourism-related activities. The tourism industry is the leading sector in Karanganyar Regency, providing the highest regional income. In the Karanganyar Regency, where there is much tourism with various characteristics, the industry’s distribution pattern is spread out, beginning at the west end and moving eastward. In addition, the accessibility level of tourist objects in Karanganyar Regency, starting from the existing facilities and infrastructure, is relatively good for each location. The condition of the road or access to tourist sites in Karanganyar Regency is likewise fairly good and evenly spread. The drawback, however, lies in the narrow and uphill roads, which are difficult and impossible to pass by large buses in highland areas or those with a small road network. In July 2022, the total number of tourists visiting Karanganyar Regency was 140,931. Nevertheless, it is unknown whether this accessibility affects the level of tourist visits. For this reason, this research used a quantitative approach with descriptive analysis and surveys or direct observation. From the research conducted, it can be seen the spatial distribution pattern analysis of the tourist attractions and the accessibility level to tourist objects in Karanganyar Regency.
