Abstract: The Pusuk Forest Pass is well known as an ecotourism area in West Lombok. In addition to inhabiting by long-tailed monkeys, it is rich in various endemic flora, including the gaharu tree of Gyrinops versteegii species. This tree is one of the attractant of the area. Currently, the population of gaharu tree is very rare so conservation efforts are needed. This community service aims to restore the forest by planting and fertilizing gaharu seedlings in the Pusuk Forest Pass, West Lombok. The activity was carried out using a collaborative action method involving students and lecturers of Biology Study Program, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences University of Mataram and the community around the forest. A total of 100 gaharu seedlings were successfully planted and fertilized to enhance their survival rates. The activity went smoothly because of good cooperation among all participants. The expectation of this action is a greater sense of responsibility for the sustainability of gaharu trees in the Pusuk Forest Pass ecotourism area.
