The article deals with the problems of development of transport and recreation activity in the areas of the Angara man-made reservoirs; here the characteristics of reservoirs and their basic morphometrical parameters are discussed. Creation of reservoirs has provided definite advantages to regional economy, because due to flooding of numerous rapids and bars the Angara-river course has become completely navigable. The rivers of Angara basin are of considerable importance in terms of transport service and the economic development of the territory, as well as for recreation tourism activity. In many cases, however, the interests of navigation do not agree (or even conflict) with those of recreation requirements: the navigation activity and timber rafting produce much of the river water pollution, whereas the recreation objects need high quality fresh water.
