The main objective of our research was to assess the social needs for the forest roles and propose how forest could further contribute to the sustainable development of the Upper Gorenjska region. The sustainability of hitherto development was assessed with the aid of a model, in which environmental, social and economic indicators were included. On the basis of advantages and disadvantages, social needs for the forest roles became evident, which were in continuation compared with the existing forest role. Itwas established that not only some relatively great efforts were made in thepast to preserve natural heritage, biodiversity and protection of land fromerosion, but that the forest roles should be implicitly strengthened to provide for further existence of agricultural activities and cultural landscape as well as for further power supply of the local population.
