The aim of the research is to find out and show the possibilities of improving the cooperation of forest pedagogue and teacher so that the activities of the forest pedagogy lead to the formation of pupils' relationship with nature and their awareness of the functioning of the forest ecosystem. The main method of data collection is interviews with teachers and forest educators. The results show that the cooperation of experts - teacher and forest pedagogue can significantly improve the application of forest pedagogy methods and thus increase the quality of achieving the goals of forest pedagogy.
