To achieve the goal of the article, a number of methods of scientific knowledge were used, namely: analysis of scientific literature, induction, deduction, synthesis, generalization, comparison. The development of green tourism requires the implementation of mandatory strategic and territorial planning for each individual territory within the administrative and territorial units of our country, the creation of the necessary infrastructure in rural areas, the implementation of an individual marketing strategy, monitoring the consequences of the growth of tourist flows, the involvement of the local population, and the development of volunteerism.
