The development of forest health tourism industry in Henan province had the advantages of special geographical location, convenient transportation, rich environmental resources and large market demand. It also had the disadvantages of imperfect supporting health tourism service facilities, insufficient publicity and lack of professional talents. At the same time, it had the opportunities of broad development prospects, government's attention and relevant policy support, as well as the threats of fierce competition with other provinces and cities, imperfect relevant laws and regulations. Finally, four development strategies, namely twist strategy (W-O), growth strategy(S-O), multiple development strategy(S-T) and defensive strategy(W-T) were proposed, in order to provide scientific reference for forest health tourism industry and high-quality development of forestry.
