Russia has 34 National Parks. National parks have some recreational facilities. Russia has an additional 75 Reserves, called "zapovedniki", 16 of which are designated UNESCO Biosphere Reserves. Zapovedniki do not allow many types of recreational activites. There are also 1519 "zakaznikov", territories where different landscapes, animals, plants, geological and hydrological objects are protected, and 30 "pamyatnikov pririodi", such as forests, caves, lakes and other natural objects. "Zakazniki" are usually created for 3, 5, 7, 10 and more years because of reduction of some kinds of animals, plants etc. Elena Biryukova

UNESCO MAB Biosphere Reserve Directory UNESCO Biosphere Reserves in the Russian Federation.
Russian Biosphere Reserves are also zapovedniki, or "strict nature reserves" and are off limits to non-research related or teaching-related activities. However, the Biosphere Reserve "model" stipulates that there is a "core area" surrounded by buffer areas in which "normal" human activities (farming, ranching, etc.) are allowed. In the cases where a Biosphere Reserve in Russia is surrounded by such a buffer, ecotourism might be possible in this buffer zone. Robert Meese
