Annotation

The analysis of the current state of forest resources to support sustainable development of the mountainous area of Lviv region is carried out. The role of forest resources in the ecologically safe development of society is analyzed and the urgent need to reassess the socio-ecological significance for the stability of mountain landscapes and the environment in general is substantiated. The peculiarities of the mountain landscape and the natural conditions of the mountainous Lviv region have caused certain motivations of people to develop complex landscapes in the historical process of settling new territories.

It is proved that the processes of destruction of the indigenous ecosystems, loss of eco-potential and transformation of bio-geocenotic cover are significantly ahead of the pace and depth of formation of the appropriate level of social sphere and economic development of mountain areas. The eco-potential of mountain forests in Lviv region is rapidly declining due to the lack of forest care. The forest industry suffers from degradation without the state support.

In terms of natural resource potential, Skole district is in significantly better starting positions and resources compared to Turkiv region for self-restoration of natural basic conditions of sustainable development. Given the relatively larger forest cover of the mountainous area of Lviv region, the presence of pieces of primary forest, as well as better developed recreational infrastructure, Skole district is the most promising in terms of tourism development. However, Turka district, with due attention to the development of its social infrastructure, limiting deforestation and intensification of reforestation, as well as taking into account its border location, has very real prospects for establishment of the recreational and tourist activities.

Emphasis is placed on rethinking the importance of special natural resources of the Carpathians. A new approach to the integrated development of ecological resources of the region and reconsideration of their social role in depressed areas of Lviv region is proposed.
