Abstract

To facilitate the transformation of ecological resource advantages into economic benefits in the border areas of Inner Mongolia, China, this study focuses on Chen Barag Banner (County) and employs the minimum cumulative resistance model (MCR) to identify resistance surfaces, key areas, and potential routes for greenway construction. Addressing the challenges associated with integrating ecological resources, underdeveloped and unused landscapes along the border, and the lack of connectivity in open spaces, the study conducts an analysis and revision of data to determine organizational forms, such as connection relationships, radiation ranges, and spatial structures. An optimal path is then selected, leading to the development of a planning scheme for the Chen Barag Banner ecotourism greenway route. The findings reveal that: (1) The comprehensive resistance of Chen Barag Banner’s cost surface is currently high in the southeast and low in the northwest. Areas characterized by flat terrain, convenient transportation, and abundant ecological resources are more suitable for greenway construction. (2) By selecting routes that are proximate to river systems and resource points while optimizing for the lowest cost path, the attractiveness and utilization rate of greenways can be enhanced. Constructing greenway lines along existing road systems reduces construction complexity, minimizes ecosystem disruption, and aligns with user behavior patterns. (3) Implementing a ring layout improves resource connectivity by organizing dispersed ecotourism resources and extending their influence to surrounding areas, thereby fostering regional tourism development. Through the systematic analysis of ecotourism resources and potential routes, the study proposes a macro-level ecotourism greenway route selection scheme described as “one vertical, two belts, and one ring.” This approach establishes a mechanism for greenway route selection in border areas, offering a practical pathway for the integration of ecotourism resources and the development of greenway routes.
