Visual impact of wind farms located in Silute and Silale regions is analyzed in the paper. The results of the field survey are compared with the theoretical visual impact zones. The sizes of visual impact zones and degrees of visual impact of wind turbines are established. The main established factors of visual influence of wind farms are forested areas, settlements, relief forms and weather conditions.
