Abstract

The Indian Himalayan region (IHR) is witnessing a burgeoning tourism industry, driven by its awe-inspiring landscapes and rich cultural heritage. However, this growth raises concerns about environmental degradation, cultural erosion, and socio-economic disparities. This research explores the imperative of sustainable tourism transformation in the IHR, aiming to balance economic development with environmental conservation and cultural preservation. Drawing on multidisciplinary literature, it examines the complexities and challenges inherent in sustainable tourism development and offers actionable recommendations for fostering sustainability in the region. The study underscores the need for collaborative efforts among stakeholders at all levels to enact transformative policies and create an enabling environment for sustainable tourism development in the IHR.
