Аннотация:The article highlights selected objects of the Kola Peninsula with unique geological values promising to become geoparks. These are a metamorphic complex of the Hadaic age from the Murmansk vicinity, the BIF formation iron ore in the Olenegorsk area, stratifid basic-ultrabasic intrusions containing PGE mineralization from the Monchegorsk vicinity, the Lapland Granulite Belt – the Proterozoic collision zone in the Kandalaksha area, the Eocambrian sedimentary complexes of the Rybachy and Tersky coasts, complexes of alkaline rocks in the massifs of Khibiny, Lovozero and Afrikanda. Provided below is their geological structure, natural environment, historical and cultural background. The article discusses conditions of creating geoparks in the target areas, i.e. the current state of tourism infrastructure, the legal situation of protected objects, possibilities of the Kola tourism development based on known examples in Kirovsk and the risk of increased tourist traffi in the discussed areas.2018-02 Krivovichev S.V., Zhigunova G.V., Huber M., Kovalevsky М.V., Novikov А.A., Boglaev V.E., Bayanova Т.B., Belevskikh Т.V., Yakovleva O.A.
