Abstract Landscape planning for the territory of the Ust’-Koksinskii district of the Altai Republic is carried out. Rather severe environment prevents formation of normal intercommunications in the area. The agro-industrial complex is one of priority and socially important sectors of economy. The livestock production was and remains traditionally prevailing industry of agricultural production. The largest spaces in the district are occupied by the agricultural land. Large number of natural sights and nature sanctuaries form a basis for tourism development. The concepts of target development for concrete territories in the district are defined on the basis of integration of maps of the development purposes for separate natural components. Mountain glacial-nival and mountain-tundra landscapes are recommended for withdrawal from current use. Mountain-tundra landscapes with larch-cedar forests are attributed to the preservation of the existing extensive use with the abandonment of certain uses. For mountain taiga landscapes, it is recommended that existing widespread use should be observed in compliance with environmental measures. Adjustable widespread use is recommended for mountain-valley landscapes. Territories with steppe landscapes in the intermontane basins belong to the category of regulated development of agriculture and tourism with a possible increase in activity and local improvement of disturbed areas.
