Abstract: Health China Strategy has risen as a national strategy. Health industry is expected to boom and become new economic growth engine in the future. As an important component of the health industry, health rehabilitation and recreation in forest (HRRF) is new in China in recent years and still in its infancy. Based on existing definitions of HRRF, we systematically expounded the concept, function, and scientific connotation of HRRF, and classified the HRRF products from the aspects of consumption object, product content, and construction subject. Six basic routes were designed for the development of HRRF, including strengthening macro control ofHRRF industry development, constructing good development mechanisms of HRRF, building up featured HRRF products and HRRF complex, strengthening scientific monitoring and construction of talent team, improving the supporting facilities to provide highquality HRRF services, and strengthening publicity and marketing to increase the awareness of HRRF brand. Finally, we discussed the connotation and extension of the HRRF research, HRRF pilot demonstration, the relationship between HRRF base and the existing forest tourism entities or forest nature reserve, the evaluation of HRRF base construction, and the relationship of HRRF development and forest conservation.
