Proposed SPA Čergov cover a substantial part of the geomorphologic unit Čergov. The site is built outside flysch, where there are predominantly clay stones and in minority the sandstones. Geomorphology territory was affected not only by the geological composition, but mainly by tectonic violation of flysch sequences. Depending on the type of relief, it is included among the lower highlands and has a very strong relief diversification. Substantial parts of the territory (about 97%) cover large plantations of beech forests, in the highest parts of the mountain are meadows with small segments of wetlands, specimen trees and groups. Mountain meadows are characteristic element of Čergov. The site is represented also by mesophilic grassland and pastures. Relatively large area of preserved forests create favorable conditions for a stable population of wolf and several species of birds, such as Strix uralensis, Aquila chrysaetos, A. pomarina, Ciconia nigra, Bonasa bonasia and others. On grassland and pastures live species such as Crex crex and Coturnix coturnix. There are more species of national importance from animals, e.g. Sicista betulina, Glis glis, Muscardinus avellanarius, Parnassius apollo, Parnassius mnemosyne; from plants species Pilosella auratiaca, Pseodoorchis albida, Lycopodium clavatum, carniolica Scopoli, Lilium bulbiferum and others.

The site is characterized by a rich diversity of habitats and species relatively preserved different types of large beech forests, and have significant representation of scree lime-maple forests. Forest habitats are supplemented by meadow and pasture communities. Conservation of these habitats is important for the protection of birds, which are the subject of the proposed SPA. According to the national network of protected areas in the territory of Slovakia, there are four national nature reserves: Čergovská javorina, Čergovský Minčol, pramenisko Tople and Hradová hora. The National nature reserve Hradová hora was declared in 1981, The National nature reserve Čegovská javorina in 1982, The National nature reserve Čergovský Minčol in 1986 and The National nature reserve Pramenisko Tople in 2002. The site is also the first private nature reserve for wolves, which was proclaimed in 2004. Within the site there are also two sites of European importance SKUEV0331 Čergovský Minčol and SKUEV0332 Čergov.

A characteristic feature of Čergov are the top slope and mountain meadows, which were in the past been used for mowing and grazing cattle. Abandonment of the traditional management and succession processes allow the transition towards forest communities. In late 80s and early 90s of the 20th century in some places the afforestation of grasslands appeared. Compactness of the forest was largely influenced by management in forests.
