Use of the methodology for direct assessment of forest stands with recreational functions on the basis of natural indicators. The assessment is tied to performance of pre made "bioclimatical analysis” and requirements of recreational ergonomics of the site. The phases adhered includes I- Classifying the results from the conducted studies on plant succession and forest types. II- Inventory and assessment of stand recreation suitability by category. iii- Type and class of recreation occurring in the forest. iv- Calculation of the average coefficients of recreation suitability under various scenarios. The present study primarily targets an efficient forest management approach, in order to help planners in making the optimal decision for recreation activities in forests.
