Forest and riparian trees are important ingredients of the landscape along watercourses. In our study we evaluated the arrangement of forests and riparian trees in the selected area along Kokra River from Preddvor to Kranj. We described forest types and tree species, forest functions and characteristics of the present management, recent changes of land use and pressures to the riparian space. We found out that the forest and riparian trees are sufficiently represented in this space, but they both need more tending and care.
