T2, a Russian mobile operator, studied the tourist activity of its customers in the Altai Mountains.
In the winter months – from December 2025 to February 2026 – residents of Novosibirsk, Kuzbass and Muscovites most often came to rest. The most popular destinations among Krasnoyarsk T2 clients were the Maiminsky, Chemalsky and Turochaksky districts.
The majority of the tourist flow to the Altai Mountains is traditionally provided by Siberians. Last winter, Novosibirsk residents made up 17% of vacationers. The second largest number of tourists to Altai are Kuzbass residents (10%), and Muscovites (8%) are already in third place in the ranking. Also, many Omsk residents (3%), Irkutsk residents (3%) and Krasnoyarsk residents (3%) vacationed in the Altai Mountains.
The top most popular locations among Krasnoyarsk residents are Manzherok and other settlements of the Maiminsky district. In second place is the Chemal direction (the villages of Chemal, Elekmonar, Uznezya, Anos, Cheposh, Katun Tourist Base). The third place is occupied by the Turochaksky district, where the picturesque Lake Teletskoye is located.
Altai began to attract more guests from the European part of Russia, the Urals and the Far East. Compared to last year, the number of tourists from the Ryazan region increased by 75%, from the Samara region by 54%, from the Yaroslavl region by 45%, from the Smolensk region and Khabarovsk Territory by 40%, and from the Perm Territory by 38%. The tourist flow from the Kirov, Kursk, Penza regions, Karelia, Mordovia and Komi increased by a third.
Tourists have become more active in calling and using mobile Internet in Altai. This winter, guests in the region used 40% more minutes and 10% more gigabytes in total than a year ago. Subscribers spent the most traffic – both in voice and on the Internet – in the Chemal region. The most exciting place was the village of Tourbaza Katun, and the most minutes were clients T2 spoke in the village of Elekmonar.
Almost 8 thousand T2 clients celebrated the advent of 2026 in the republic. The operator recorded the largest number of tourists on January 1 in the villages of Mayma, Souzga, Manzherok and Ozernoye, Mayminsky district, as well as in the village of Tourbaza Katun, Chemalsky district.
T2 is developing its own “boxed” solution for geoanalytics – a platform built on anonymized big data (big data). The service contains dozens of analytical reports where you can estimate the total number of tourists in a region and a specific place, determine the seasonality of travel, create a rating of travelers’ “home” regions, and create a portrait of visitors. Tourist flow analytics will be useful to departments and entrepreneurs who plan to attract tourists and develop infrastructure.
