Abstract

Purpose: to consider the theoretical and methodological issues of recreational zoning of Russian regions for solving the problems of developing the country's domestic tourism. It makes it possible to reveal the peculiarities of the functioning of the tourist and recreational systems of the regions, creating the basis for various types of territorial administration. Materials and methods. The information base was the theoretical and methodological works of geographers and economists on the recreational zoning of Russian regions, as well as materials from the national tourist rating. It is proposed to identify ways to develop tourist and recreational activities in the regions at the present stage on the basis of rational territorial organization of tourism and recreation using the method of economic zoning. The process of economic zoning is considered as a progressive method of large-scale economic and geographical analysis. Results and discussion. Tourist and recreational activities have become a profitable branch of our country and have great prospects for further development due to the variety of tourist resources in the vast expanses of Russia. Recreational needs of the population are becoming an important socio-economic factor in the development of domestic tourism. Each region of the Russian Federation has a certain combination of tourist resources and has prerequisites for creating unique tourist products. The development of domestic tourism is particularly important due to epidemiological processes and the current geopolitical situation in the modern world. However, it is difficult to solve the problems that have arisen to strengthen the development of domestic tourism due to insufficient transport services in a number of regions and the weak development of tourist infrastructure. Conclusions. The study of recreational district formation is of particular importance at the present stage. A comprehensive analysis of factors and conditions of the formation of tourism and recreation allows us to determine a balanced, proportional structure of the recreational complex of the region.
