The article presents information about the result of the experiment that determined the amount of tourist waste in the Altai Mountains of Kazakhstan and the Altai Mountains of Mongolia. During the pandemic, traveling to the Altai Mountains became a trend for domestic tourism in both countries. Due to the low development of the infrastructure in this region, touri st vehicles drive on unpaved roads, build new branch roads, cross clay swamps to approach high mountains, damage the soil cover, and dump garbage into nature. The authors conducted a special experiment on the main tourist routes in the Altai Mountains and determined the amount of waste per tourist. Based on the results of the experiment, calculated the total amount of tourists in the Altai Mountains in the last 5 years.
