Myriads of vulnerabilities in hydro tourism destinations which can transform into disasters when not properly managed in the country have been categorized into three groups in this paper following Lindell, et. al.(2006) while different techniques of preventing such vulnerabilities from transforming to disasters were discusseden_US
