UFA, 28 June 2017. /Bashinform News Agency, Alim Faizov/. The Kandry-Kul National Nature Park in Tuymazy district of Bashkortostan is among the most popular among Russian tourists.

According to the department, the most popular national natural parks among Russians include "Losiny Ostrov" in the metropolitan region, "Sochi" in the Krasnodar Territory, "Pribaikalsky" in the Irkutsk region, "Curonian Spit" in Kaliningrad, "Elbrus" in Kabardino-Balkaria, "Shushensky Bor" in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, "Kandry-Kul" in Bashkiria, "Russian North" in the Vologda region, "Khvalynsky" near Saratov and "Lower Kama" in Tatarstan. Promising areas of eco-tourism are located in the Altai Territory, Karelia and Yakutia.

Growth of interest to ecological tourism in Russia is also observed among foreign travelers. According to the Russian Association of Medical Tourism, eco-tourists from Britain, Italy, France, China, Germany, USA, Israel, Spain, Japan, South Korea and Iran visit Russia.
