This paper focuses on investigating how the climate crisis affects the frequency and intensity of forest fires. Using the FLAMMAP program, fires were simulated in the "Sklavopoula" and "Kakodiki" areas based on existing meteorological data and fuel management, as well as under different temperature increase scenarios. The aim was to capture the effect of climate change on the spread of fires, especially in these areas, which are vulnerable due to the topography and special weather conditions.
