the development theory of "Two Mountains".With the increase of the number of sports tourism,the construction of sports tourism infrastructure and personnel services in Guizhou Province have been put forward new requirements.It is well known that tourists’ satisfaction has a direct impact on their revisit rate,recommendation rate and other post-tour behaviors.Therefore,it is necessary for Guizhou province to pay attention to the satisfaction of sports tourists in order to develop the sports tourism industry and set up the national sports tourism demonstration area.This research takes the hikers satisfaction of Guizhou Province as the subjects,and adopts the methods of literature,questionnaire and mathematical statistics to study the hiking tourism in Guizhou Province.First of all,through the process of sorting and researching of relevant literature,the index pool that affects the satisfaction of hiking tourists in Guizhou Province is summarized and constructed,and the pre-questionnaire is formed.Through item analysis and factor analysis on the pre-survey questionnaire data,the satisfaction index system of the hikers in Guizhou Province was established,and the formal questionnaire was formed.Secondly,an empirical survey was carried out on the hikers in Guizhou Province.Through IPA and other analysis on the questionnaire data,the present situation of the satisfaction of hikers in Guizhou Province was presented,and the priority direction for improving the satisfaction of hikers in Guizhou Province was obtained.On this basis,relevant suggestions were put forward.The main conclusions of this study are as follows:(1)Hiker satisfaction evaluation index system in Guizhou Province is composed of 22 attribute indexes in four dimensions,including supporting service perception,personnel service perception,value perception and hiking route perception.(2)Hikers in Guizhou Province are composed of high education,middle and low income,etc.,with a trend of polarization in age,and the main motivations of participation are get close to nature,leisure and fitness.(3)The perception of satisfaction degree of hikers in Guizhou Province is lower than
