Abstract: Wuling Mountain area was selected as the research object, and 22 indicators were selected to construct the evaluation index system of the ecological livability level of Wuling Mountain area from the four aspects of economic construction level, ecological development level, social service and security, residents' life and cultural environment. The spatial-temporal evolution law of ecological livability level in Wuling Mountain area from 2013 to 2021 was explored by the entropy weight method and TOPSIS model, combined with ArcGIS for visual analysis. In addition, the main obstacle factors were analyzed by the obstacle factor diagnosis model. The results showed that, from 2013 to 2021, the ecological livability level of Wuling Mountain area showed a dynamic change trend of first decreasing, then increasing and decreasing again. Among them, the ecological livability level of Enshi Prefecture, Qianjiang District and Tongren City showed an upward trend; the ecological livability level of Huaihua City and Xiangxi Prefecture showed a “V” curve change with time, and the overall trend was downward; the ecological livability level of Zhangjiajie City continued to decline. The regional ecological livability level showed a downward trend in the east and central-southern regions, and the concentrated areas with high ecological livability level shifted from the east in 2013 to the northwest in 2021. From the perspective of obstacle factor analysis, the obstacle degree of the first-level index of ecological livability level in Wuling Mountain area from large to small was economic construction level, residents' life and cultural environment, social service and security, and ecological development level. The five main obstacle factors were per capita local fiscal general budget revenue, number of schools per 10 000 people, highway mileage per 10 000 people, total fixed asset investment per capita, and the proportion of the tertiary industry in GDP.
