In the article the necessity of authentication of
sporting tourism is rotined as a type of sport. Existing presently numberless number of forms and types of active and passive rest
(tourism) and joining them to sporting tourism is a fact unprecedented, that testifies to ignorance and ununderstanding of Single
sporting classification, its essence and forming principles. Going in for sports is activity of man, requiring the considerable physical
loadings and tension, permanent perfections, special technical and tactical receptions, theoretical and psychological preparation,
what essence of sporting activity consists of, including sporting tourism. It is necessary to do away with confusion in terminology, in
fact it is already well-proven a long ago, that in sporting tourism a term is unacceptable «tourist», as well as in mountaineering of
«alpinist». In sporting tourism a hike can be only tourist, equipment – tourist, bivouac – tourist, route – tourist et cetera. If not to stop

system of sporting motion and his legal place in the group of the applied not olympic types of sport.
