The concept of the ecological framework is aimed at preserving the long - term environmental sustainability of the territories, which is able to counteract the anthropogenic impact. In this regard, the identification of key areas subject to uncontrolled anthropogenic load is an urgent task, the implementation of which will allow to respond in a timely manner to the trend of degradation of already existing ecosystems. The key functions of the cores of the ecological framework are the preservation of natural and territorial complexes, the maintenance of biodiversity and the creation of conditions for recreation. The scientific novelty of this article is to identify the level of intensity of non - productive anthropogenic load on the core of the ecological framework (forests), depending on their distance from the center of Belgorod. In particular, a number of factors affecting the litter (clutter) of the studied areas are analyzed and a solution to the problem of uncontrolled recreation in the peripheral zone of forests is put forward in order to reduce the anthropogenic load on the entire array as a whole.
