The aim of the study is to determine non-economic forest values on the basis of economic value. In randomly selected stands, a point method of forest valorisation was carried out in relation to three groups of functions: protective, health-recreational and production. On the basis of the tax description, the economic value of  the forest was calculated, using the indicators of the expected value of one hectare of stand. For the analysis of the relationship between the assessed function group forest stand and the value expected by analysis of correlation coefficient of Spearman were applied. The research results indicate that there is a significant relationship between non-economic functions and the expected value of the forest. Further development of valorisation methods for forest functions in terms of an objective assessment of forest condition can be used in the future for the valuation of the total forest value.
