The preferences pertained to frequency of visits and willingness to pay for recreational infrastructure in a forest depending on its appearance, level of development, and the respondent’s income. The data were processed using statistical analysis (ANOVA Friedman test, U Mann–Whitney test, logistic regression). The results show that the higher the development level of a forest, the more often young people choose it for leisure. Willingness to pay for a forest depends on its development level, with respondents more willing to fund forests with a higher development level. No such correlation with the respondents’ income was found. Preferences regarding the selection of a specific type of forest for leisure were dependent on per capita income of the respondents only in the case of forests at a lower level of development. A forest’s preference level affected the willingness to pay for it and varied depending on the development level.Agnieszka MandziukBeata Fornal-PieniakDagmara StangierskaStanisław ParzychKatarzyna WideraMDPI AGarticleurban forestssocial preferenceswillingness to payrecreationcitytourist developmentPlant ecologyQK900-989ENForests, Vol 12, Iss 1524, p 1524 (2021)
