Abstract
⺠We identify the driving factors of the current distribution of giant chestnut trees. ⺠Altitude, distance from lake, livestock, settlements and footpaths are good predictors. ⺠Overall prediction rates range from 80.6% to 83.8%. ⺠Giant chestnuts are located in marginal places with a sufficient degree of centrality. ⺠Former socio-economic conditions and environmental constraints are decisive.
