As important carriers of heritage activation, traditional villages contain cultural genes of the human-nature relationship and integrate tangible and intangible cultural heritage, whose systematic heritage corridor construction is significant for rural revitalization. Taking 792 traditional villages in Guangxi as the research object, this study uses the optimal parameter geographical detector to identify the impact of geological disasters and other factors on village spatial distribution, supplemented by kernel density estimation and Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) interpolation to analyze provincial cultural concentration. Circuit Theory is introduced to construct a traditional village heritage corridor network, with analyses of accessibility and cultural cohesion. The results show that land cover is the dominant factor affecting village distribution, with earthquakes and other geological disasters having significant complex impacts under multi-factor interaction. The corridor network presents a “one axis, two rings, multiple points” spatial pattern; corridors under constraints constructed based on Circuit Theory have strong spatial accessibility in high cultural concentration areas. The identified theme-based tour routes connect networks with different degrees of cultural cohesion, and constructing health preservation, experience and study tours can promote coordinated traditional village protection, tourism development and cultural communication, providing spatial path support for the rural revitalization strategy.
