Abstract: The ecological environment protection and utilization of forestland scenic spot is fundamental for the development of scenic spot tourism. In this study, an ecological sensitivity evaluation index system was established based on environmental factors and protection needs. The combined weights were obtained by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and entropy weight methods. The ecological sensitivity of the Qingyun Mountain scenic spot in Benxi was evaluated by GIS technique, and the spatial planning of the scenic spot was formulated. The results showed that the high-sensitive, sensitive, low-sensitive and non-sensitive areas accounted for 9.2%, 60.2%, 22.7% and 7.9% of the total area of Qingyun Mountain scenic spot, respectively. According to the ecological characteristics and ecological protection red line of Qingyun Mountain, the scenic area could be divided into three parts, including restricted development zone, moderate development zone, and tourism development zone. Combined with the spatial distribution of natural and cultural resources, the spatial planning of “two axis and six areas” in the scenic spot was formulated. In view of the resource utilization status and existing problems in each zone, we proposed corresponding tourism development planning strategies. Our results could provide a more scientific and effective planning path for the spatial planning of forestland scenic spots.
