The purpose of the study was to prove that the revitalization of the ergo-spiritually oriented Melukat place can improve the physiological fitness and caring attitude of the community towards the maintenance and preservation of Water Resources in Peliatan Village. The method used is a quasi-experimental and the research design is a posttest only group design.

The data obtained were analyzed descriptively by looking for the percentage change and continued with the paired t difference test because the data were normally distributed at a significance level of 5%. The results showed that: (1) there was a significant increase in physiological fitness (p<0.05) seen from the improvement in physiological responses to: (a) pulse rate as a physiological load parameter by 15.3%, (b) musculoskeletal system by 17.2%, and (c) respiratory frequency of 11.5%, (2) attitude of caring for the community towards the maintenance strategy of 27.8%, and (3) preparedness of community care for the preservation of Water Resources by 23.6% between before and after revitalization.
