Ways of developing tourism logistics in the far north of Russia

Abstract The paper describes the current state of national and international tourism in the Karelian Republic. The authors outline the possible ways of further development of tourism in this region, as well as the ways of attracting both national and international tourists to the region, which is important for the national image. The analysis of the current situation shows that at present there is no adequate infrastructure in Karelia that could satisfy the tourists’ needs. The paper discusses the infrastructure of this Arctic region and highlights the main indicators and factors characterizing the touristic field. The authors propose an algorithm and a model for tourism development in Karelia - the subarctic region of the Russian Federation.
