In 2024, the Altai Republic confirmed the status of one of the most popular tourist destinations in Russia. At the end of the year, 2.7 million people visited the region, which is 5% more than in 2023. The trend is expected to continue in 2025, with gains ranging from 5% to 7%. This was announced at the end of January 2025 by the First Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the region Olga Filipenkova.

According to TASS, the regional authorities are actively working to improve the quality of tourist services and create comfortable conditions for vacationers. State support is aimed both at the development of large facilities and at launching new initiatives that will expand the range of available services for travelers. Particular attention is paid to reducing the seasonal dependence of the industry, since most tourists come in the summer. With the commissioning of new facilities, including the all-season resort "Manzherok," the flow of guests in winter increased. Filipenkova noted that the further development of this direction may become an important factor in the growth of the tourist attractiveness of the region.

Autotourism remains the most common form of travel in the Altai Republic. According to Filipenkova, about 80% of the region's guests come by private or rented transport, which requires modernization and expansion of road infrastructure. In this regard, the authorities are developing a comprehensive navigation system that will allow tourists to quickly receive information about places of accommodation, tourist facilities and roadside service points. Among the priority areas of development is the creation of convenient recreation areas equipped with modern sanitary conditions and the necessary amenities for comfortable stay of car travelers.^[1]
