The factors which determined the atmosphere and the scenic desirability in the forest were studied by image evaluation method for university students. The objects were 300, 120 and 15-years old deciduous broad-leaved forests and a 90-years old coniferous forest in the Gifu University Forest, in central Japan. The questionnaire survey with "like and dislike" scale was carried out to investigate the scenic desirability. As a result, a partial correlation analysis for the questionnaire of desirability showed that the scenic desirability was determined by shape of trees, in deciduous broad-leaved forests.
