It is projected to create "Kodar" national park in Zabaikalsky Krai. But it will be set about the project only after "Chikoy" park will open. Kodar is a Trans-Baikal ridge, known worldwide for its perma-glaciers and unique peaks. 200-kilometers stretched ridge has not been thoroughly explored by tourists yet.
The lack of any infrastructure is the main barrier toward mountain summits. The status of special protected area, given to Kodar, will contribute to infrastructure’s development. The new status of the ridge would help not only to preserve the unique nature of Northern Mountains, but also to attract large funds into the region due to tourism.
