This research method is a qualitative research with a descriptive exploratory research type where the focus of the research refers to indicators based on stakeholder collaboration that allow for broad networking and strong, synergistic and participation between actors. This research is expected to provide a complete picture to the stakeholder collaboration model in ecotourism management in Batu City as stated in the objectives of this study. The results of this study are cooperation and interaction between stakeholders have not been maximal in the development of ecotourism. The city government through the tourism bureau of Batu City only plays a limited role in planning and facilitating ecotourism implementation. Forestry bureau has the authority to manage social forests, so people who want to manage within the area must go through Forestry bureau. The society takes the initiative in managing the area to become an ecotourism destination. Academics have not been maximal in contributing to development. Meanwhile, the private sector has self-managed ecotourism destinations. Therefore, the ecotourism destinations that only have low resources and are remote is a lack of good handling. So, it is necessary to maximize the cooperation role of stakeholders to minimize the problems of ecotourism destinations, the survival of the ecosystem and the community itself in the long term.
