This paper presents the results of the research of the state of Grdelica gorge and Vranje basin forests, which belong to the region of south-east Serbia, the Juzna Morava and Jablanica forest area. These forest areas cover the area of 263.888,82 ha (44,6% state owned, 55.4% privately owned). The forests and forest land of Grdelica gorge and Vranje basin manged by Public Enterprise Srbijasume, cover the area of 45.675,12 ha, which constitutes 17.3% of the total area. The largest part of the forests, 86.9%, is managed by Vranje, a forest estate from Vranje, and part of them, 13.1% is managed by Suma, a forest estate from Leskovac. According to the general function, the forests of the researched area are classified into three categories: forests with a production - protection function (most represented), forest with a primary protection function, and special natural reserves. The forests with production of technical wood as basic function cover the largest area. Forest with a primarily protection function - soil protection level one - are also represented. Harmonization of plans, measures and work with the defined needs and established state of forests of the area of Grdelica gorge and Vranje basin offers an opportunity for improvement of forest ecosystems.
