Forest fires are one of the disasters that nature adapts to. However, due to increased industry and urbanization, the number of fires is rising. Forest fires not only have a severe impact on the environment, but they also threaten the lives of humans and animals. The danger of forest fires and their spread hazards are analyzed in various studies, and the fire risks of the regions are identified. Furthermore, several studies appeared to aim to optimize fire protection strategies based on risk output. In this study, to assess the fire risk, an MCDM approach based on AHP is utilized. The evaluation criteria are determined in accordance with previous research and experts’ recommendations. The decision hierarchy has 6 main criteria and 18 criteria. A pairwise comparison questionnaire survey is conducted. Tree species and composition is found as the highest forest fire risk factor.
