One of the tourism sectors is special interest tourism, especially in rural areas. The involvement of local community participation plays an important role in the development and preservation of the environment and local resources. However, most of them work as farmers, of course they lack knowledge and experience in the field of tourism. So that in involving the community it is necessary to do training first. This study aims to analyze the form of local community involvement in Pengotan Village by using the theory of participation and the function of human resources. This research was conducted by collecting qualitative data. Data obtained from interviews and observations. After the data was obtained, the researchers analyzed the data using Miles and Huberman.
