Abstract
The article considers ecological tourism as a factor in the development of the regional economy, maintaining the ecological balance and natural resource potential in the regions. Implementing the national project “Tourism and the hospitality industry”, the regions are tasked with developing their own concepts for the development of tourism, training their own personnel, improving the management system, creating popular tourism products and tourist and recreational infrastructure, actively involving ecological tourism. The purpose of the study is to analyze the possibilities of creating large-scale trans-regional tourist routes, clusters and destinations that contribute to the cost-effective and environmentally safe use of the natural resource potential of the regions. The study was based on the fundamental materials of the existing theoretical and practical information base in the field of regional ecology, nature management and tourism. The methodological basis of the study was the concept of geographical determinism, sustainable development and the paradigm of environmental economics. In the course of the study, methods of comparative historical and spatial-territorial analysis, environmental monitoring, assessment of natural resource potential and regional ecological and economic systems were used. The idea of transboundary interregional and international cooperation in the field of ecology and tourism is put forward to create large-scale transregional and transnational tourist routes and ecological trails. An innovative modular approach to the creation of large-scale tourist routes and ecological trails is proposed, which can become the basis for the creation of tourist clusters. The significance of the interregional approach to the creation of tourist clusters and destinations is analyzed. Geographical and natural resource factors are considered as the basis for establishing the territory of a destination that has a unique natural resource and environmental potential, natural monuments, objects of historical and cultural heritage. In conclusion, the importance of creating large-scale interregional cross-border tourist routes and ecological trails based on a modular approach through cross-border regional cooperation in the field of ecology and tourism, creating a unified managed system of ecological tourism elements in the regions of Russia and combining them into cluster networks and destinations is noted.
