: Population growth and high exploitation of natural resources cause many damages such as sail erosion, Environmental pollution and finally desertification. So far sustainable use of natural resources , it is necessary to know natural resources have environmental value , in addition to Producing value . Agroforestry , which is an aggregation of agricultural and pastural matters which wood production and forestry, in addition to providing large number of social-economical resources for resident and land users, have important environmental effects and benefits such as water storage , decrease soil erosion and improve landscape situation. Agroforestry systems not only provide reasonable level of nature exploitation, but also can develop economical incomes by recreation and decrease pressure an nature. Therefore in this study , recreation potentials of agroforestry systems are evaluated. Leopold matrix is one of the most common developed method for environmental assessment. In this study, the basis of this method in used for recreation evaluation. five recreational activities were located in the first raw of matrix effective factors in recreation in tourists view were put in first column of matrix. Then the quantitative impacts of each factor on each activity was specified. For impacts quantification ,Questionnaires about effective factors in recreation by tourists view were prepared were completed by some tourists in different recreational activities. Questionnaires were prepared based on one of the multi-criteria decision analysis methods, called AHP and then data obtained from questionnaires were used in matrix. Finally by using Leopold matrix, a model for recreational evaluation of different landscapes is made. After recording agroforestry systems in study area putting down recreation model in them, it is found tourists in the same situation, area within agroforestry systems have higher recreational value than area tourists these systems.
