Abstract
The article examines the legal protection of geodiversity (a set of objects of inanimate nature), which is carried out within the framework of the legal regime of specially protected natural territories, the legal regime of historical and cultural monuments, as well as the legal protection of the habitat of animal world. The necessity of including state nature reserves in the list of specially protected natural territories around which protection zones are established is substantiated. The absence or late establishment of protected zones has been revealed for many natural monuments of regional significance (including natural monuments of regional significance as part of the geopark), which, according to current legislation, should have protected zones, and recommendations for changing legislation have been formulated. It is shown that it is impossible to create a geopark in an area where only objects of archaeological heritage with geological significance and their ensembles are located without including specially protected natural territories of geological and other profile in the geopark. It is proved that the legal protection of the speleofauna habitat is an element of the legal protection of geodiversity. In order to preserve the excursion caves, it is proposed to normalize the duration of artificial lighting from stationary sources located in them.
