摘要

近年來台灣的登山健行活動已趨普遍，步道設計及規劃問題愈加受到重視，但卻較少對於登山健行活動的行為加以探討，本研究針對登山步道遊憩環境與選擇行為關係加以探討。實證研究基地為台中市大坑風景區內八條步道，以結構式問卷調查登山步道使用者對於步道選擇因素的重要性程度認知，共得876份問卷資料。本研究先將登山步道依實質環境分為「困難型」、「中級型」、「簡易型」三種困難程度類型，經由受測者選擇步道之考量因子進行判別分析，驗證步道困難程度類型分類之有效性，再應用因素分析將登山者選擇步道之33項考量因素問項，分為八類選擇因素構面：分別為「設施管理」、「體能適應」、「社交聯誼」、「自然資源」、「客觀條件」、「特定活動」、「同伴參與」、「寧靜感」等因素構面，並進一步分析不同困難程度步道活動者其選擇步道因素的差異。研究結果顯示：登山步道使用者背景屬性與選擇步道困難程度類型間有顯著相關；而不同困難程度步道登山者，其考量選擇因素有所不同，選擇困難型步道者較重視步道沿線的「自然資源」和「寧靜感」兩項因素，選擇中級型步道者則較重視步道的「設施管理」因素，而選擇簡易型步道的遊客重視是否適合其「體能適應」、「客觀條件」和沿線有否「特定活動」因素。研究者亦提出相關登山步道環境改善之建議，期望對於登山步道遊憩環境之改善及建設有實質的助益。

Mountain hiking becomes one of the major outdoor activities in Taiwan. But, little research to date has attempted to assess the choice behavior of hiking. This study explored the relationships between recreational environment and choice behavior of mountain hiking. On-site structured questionnaires were surveyed at eight mountain trails of Daken recreational area, Taichung. There were 876 usable questionnaires. This research first leveled the hiking environment into three types, tough, intermediate and easy, according to the difficulties of the mountain trails. After using factor analysis to analyze 33 variables, eight factors for choice behavior dimension were generated. These eight factors were: facility management, physical adaptation, social interaction, natural resource, objective condition, specific activities, types of companion, sense of silence. The differentiate selected factors among three types of climbing-hikers were also analyzed. The findings show that: 1. There are significant relationships between visitors' demographic background and the selected difficult levels of hiking trails. 2. The composition of choosing hiking trails factors are related to the difficult levels of hiking trails. The tough level hikers emphasize on natural resource and sense of silence, while intermediate level participants pay attention to facility management and easy level participants concern on physical adaptation and structured conditions. The results confirm the levels of difficulty for mountain hike do influence choice behavior of visitors. Furthermore, this study provides useful information to improve physical conditions of mountain hiking trails.
