Abstract

We examine results of recreation-geographical investigations in the Baikal region, where in Irkutsk oblast and Republic of Buryatia different measures are implemented, aimed at tourist flow increase. An analysis is made of the leading natural-ecological and socio-economic factors for the territorial organization of tourist and recreational activity. This study is based on theoretical-methodological approaches of recreation geography using the landscape planning, zoning and mapping approaches. It is confirmed that the development of the tourist system limits its capacity, which is determined by the natural properties of the natural environment and the state of the basic infrastructure of tourism and the associated infrastructure complexes - transport, social, household, environmental protection. Three types of ecological barriers to tourism development are identified: the existing legislatively established standards regulating recreational pressure on them; the resilience of ecosystems to tourism-related anthropogenic impacts, and the present status of natural ecosystems under recreational pressure. Territorial features of the system are determined by the tourist-recreational zoning, it is proposed to allocate eleven tourist-recreational zones. Based on the results of the research, it is planned to develop the Rules for tourism and recreation adjustment in the Baikal region.
