Summary/Abstract: The landscape with hamlets represents a distinctive type of cultural landscape with a relatively large spread in Slovakia characterized by very close ties between humans and nature. The dispersed type of settlement was formed mainly in more remote regions with difficult conditions for life, in certain specific types of the natural landscape of the Slovak Carpathians. This paper focuses on research into the extent and nature of the impact of natural conditions on the origin and development of the dispersed settlement in the model territory of the cadastral area of the village of Hrušov (district of Veľký Krtíš). Among other things results, we found that the dominant determinant of the character of the dispersed settlement of the model territory is a relief.
