Abstract
As part of the conducted research, a statistical analysis was performed, which made it possible to identify and characterize the current state of local tourist and recreational systems among the economic entities of the Volga Federal District. In addition, a comprehensive study of these systems in individual regions of the district was carried out. In addition, the article identifies the main levels of interaction between local systems, which allows for characterization of the degree of their cooperation and mutual influence. Based on statistical data for 2025, significant spatial disparities in the development of the tourism sector have been identified. The article substantiates the relevance of studying local tourist and recreational systems amid growing demand for domestic tourism and the need to optimize the management of tourism resources in the regions of Russia. Special attention is given to the analysis of territorial competitiveness factors and the diagnosis of problematic aspects in developing the resort and recreational potential of the Volga Federal District. The article identifies leading regions, regions with average values for the analyzed indicators, and lagging regions, and proposes ways to modernize the material and technical base of tourist facilities, increase sector profitability, and engage the local population in promoting regional brands. The study substantiates priority directions for each group of regions—from active promotion of event tourism in leading regions to the creation of basic infrastructure and increased brand recognition in lagging regions. The authors of the article refer to modern scientific publications on the sustainable development of the tourism sector, as well as studies on the management of innovative mechanisms in tourism and hospitality. The main results of this study can serve as a basis for shaping tourism development strategies at the regional level.
