The Bedah Menoreh program in Kulon Progo acts as an important accelerator in tourism development by opening access to key destinations such as Mount Gajah, Nglinggo Tea Plantation, and Kedung Pedut Waterfall. This study examines the potential, challenges, and strategies for tourism development through Bedah Menoreh. The results show increased accessibility that drives tourism growth and the local economy, but is faced with environmental constraints, limited human resources, and lack of effective promotion. Recommended development strategies include environmental conservation, increasing human resource capacity, strengthening digital promotion, developing supporting facilities, and collaboration between stakeholders. With the right strategy, Bedah Menoreh can accelerate inclusive and sustainable tourism development in Kulon Progo
