Silvicultural measures to optimize both production and recreation services of the urban forest
Original language description
Urban forests are usually affected by anthropogenic activities; it is necessary to find approaches minimizing risks and favoring optimization of both production and recreation functions. To analyze need of the local people, a questionnaire survey was conducted in the urban forests of Ostrava City. More than half people preferred less than 30 minutes travel to forests; 15% were willing to spend more than 1 hour on the way. The most common travelling was walking and cycling. People mentioned often having a rest (70%) and doing sports (43%). Only few (4%) responders gather fuel-wood in the forests. The locals like mixed stands (ca 50%) with two and more tree species sharing the stands. The most appreciated trees were Norway spruce and Scots pine. Logging, skidding and hauling affected the visitor’s needs negatively. The worst thing disturbing their recreation is waste left in the forest.
