GIS technologies identifying priority areas that require upgrading of the content and methods of planning, preparation and implementation of educational tourism and naturalistic routes, have been described. When applying GIS in tourism and local lore work the following processes take place: different programs mapping; local lore tourist routes modeling; creation of data banks of various local lore objects according to the main directions of regional researches.
