11月9日，2026国际山地旅游暨户外运动大会在贵州省黔西南州兴义市开幕。近400名海内外嘉宾从各地赶来，共赴一场“文旅体融合·高品质生活——山地深呼吸·旅居慢生活”的主题盛会。会场之外，有人已经在万峰湖边支起了钓竿，有人沿着峰林间的步道走了很远，就在不久前的十月，花江峡谷大桥上的跳伞运动员把626米的垂直落差变成了一次次空中翱翔。

On November 9, the International Conference of Mountain Tourism and Outdoor Sports 2026 opened in Xingyi, Qianxinan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. Nearly 400 guests from home and abroad gathered for the event, whose theme was“Integration of Culture, Tourism and Sports Presents a High Quality Life — Breathe Deep in the Mountains, A Slow-Living Sojourn.”Outside the venue, some had already set up fishing rods by Wanfeng Lake; others had walked far along the trails winding through the peak forest. Just this October, BASE jumpers above the Huajiang Canyon Bridge had turned a 626-meter vertical drop into one soaring descent after another.

十余年前，同样在这片土地上，第一届大会试图回答的问题是：贵州的山，能让人来看什么？十余年过去，答案换了方向。从2015年举办首届至今，80余个国家和地区的5000余名嘉宾赴黔，持续吸引全球山地旅游从业者、运动员、专家走进贵州，带动全省山地旅游持续升温，入境游、山地户外运动客流稳步增长。

Over ten years ago, on this same land, the first conference tried to answer a question: What can Guizhou’s mountains offer people to see? Ten years on, the answer has changed direction. Since the first conference in 2015, more than 5,000 guests from 80 countries and regions have traveled to Guizhou. The event has continued to draw mountain tourism professionals, athletes and experts from around the world, helping to steadily heat up mountain tourism across the province, with inbound tourism and visitor flows for mountain outdoor sports growing steadily.

但真正变化的东西不只在数字里，更在人的动作里——从前人们举起手机拍一张万峰林的照片。现在，有人从桥上跳下去，有人钻进绥阳双河洞的深处跑一场穿越赛，有人在马岭河的地缝里划着皮划艇，抬头只看见一线天。“看山”变成了用身体去“丈量山”。

But what has truly changed is not only in the numbers; it is in what people do. Visitors once raised their phones to take a photo of Wanfenglin. Now some jump off the bridge, some go deep into Shuanghe Cave in Suiyang to run a traversing race, and some paddle kayaks through the crevice of the Maling River, looking up to see only a sliver of sky.“Seeing the mountains”has become“measuring the mountains with the body.”

大会把今年的主题落在“旅居”，说的是从“邀天下客来看山”到“留四方人来生活”。听上去温和，但支撑它的底子并不温和——贵州92.5%的国土是山地和丘陵，喀斯特把大地切得支离破碎，峰丛、峡谷、天坑、暗河构成的山地地貌就像亿万年的地质运动揉皱的一张纸。过去这张纸是屏障，是贫困的理由。如今同一张纸被重新解读：皱褶成了赛道，断崖成了跳台，地缝成了激流回旋的水道。山没有变，变的是人看山的方式。

This year’s conference centers its theme on“travel living,”signaling a shift from“inviting guests from afar to see the mountains”to“keeping visitors from everywhere to live here for a while.”It sounds gentle, but the foundation beneath it is anything but. Some 92.5% of Guizhou’s land is mountains and hills; karst has cut the land into fragments. The mountain landscape of peak clusters, canyons, sinkholes and underground rivers is like a sheet of paper crumpled by geological forces over hundreds of millions of years. In the past, this sheet of paper was a barrier, a reason for poverty. Today, the same sheet of paper is being reread: its folds have become racetracks, its cliffs have become launch pads, and its crevices have become whitewater slalom channels. The mountains have not changed; what has changed is the way people look at them.

在黔西南，这种重新阅读已然铺开。安龙笃山的天然崖壁上，攀岩者扣住支点向上求索，岩壁的线路不是人工设定的，是喀斯特自己留下的；万峰林间的赛道在2023年鸣响第一枪之后，马拉松跑者开始把这里当作一个必须抵达的地方；花江峡谷大桥通车后，桥不只是桥，高空竞速跑道和极限体验项目被嵌进了那座横竖都是世界第一的钢铁结构里。

In Qianxinan, this rereading is already under way. On the natural cliffs of Dushan in Anlong, climbers grip the holds and work their way upward; the routes on the rock were not set by humans but left by karst itself. Since the starting gun first fired on the Wanfenglin course in 2023, marathon runners have begun to treat this place as a must-reach destination. After the Huajiang Canyon Bridge opened to traffic, the bridge became more than a bridge: high-altitude speed-racing tracks and extreme-experience facilities were built into a steel structure that ranks first in the world in both height and span.

上天有跳伞，入地有探洞，上路有骑行和奔跑，穿瀑有激流回旋。这些不是被“引进”到贵州的赛事，是贵州的地形自己生长出来的运动方式。

In the sky, there is skydiving; underground, cave exploration; on the road, cycling and running; through the waterfalls, whitewater slalom. These are not events“imported”into Guizhou; they are ways of moving that have grown out of Guizhou’s terrain itself.

125.8万座山头和4697条河流，在17.62万平方千米的土地上铺开一座真正意义上的天然运动场。大会的意义，不在于把世界的目光请进会场，而在于让那些目光顺着峡谷、溶洞和桥面落下去，看见一个事实：在贵州，体育不需要被“安置”在山水之间，体育本身就是山水存在的一种方式。

Some 1.258 million mountain peaks and 4,697 rivers spread across 176,200 square kilometers of land, laying out a truly natural arena. The significance of the conference lies not in inviting the world’s gaze into a venue, but in letting that gaze travel down along canyons, caves and bridge decks until it sees a fact: in Guizhou, sports do not need to be“placed”among mountains and rivers; sports are themselves a way in which the mountains and rivers exist.

大会开幕后，万峰林万人徒步的队伍会散入峰林深处，野钓的浮标会在湖面上安静地待上48个小时。不远处的桥面上，下一批跳伞的人正在系紧伞包。贵州没有试图证明山地也能搞体育。它只是把大地摊开，让所有人看见：赛场本来就在那里。

After the opening, the 10,000-person hiking group at Wanfenglin will disperse into the depths of the peak forest, and the floats of wild anglers will sit quietly on the lake for 48 hours. On the bridge deck not far away, the next group of skydivers is tightening their parachute packs. Guizhou has not tried to prove that sports can also be done in the mountains. It has simply spread the land open and let everyone see: the arena has been there all along.
