Canine intestinal parasites from the soil and sand present an important potential serious human health hazard, especially for the children preschool and school \u2013 age. This paper aimed to establish the degree of contamination of soil and sand with zoonotic parasites from the canine feces and the degree of risk they could pose for human health in public places and playgrounds in the city of Ni\u0161. Our parasitological study involved 200 soil samples and 50 sand samples from the public parks in the city of Ni\u0161 in southeastern Serbia (43\u00b019\u203215\u2033N, 21\u00b053\u203245\u2033 E). From several locations, about 100 g of soil and sand was collected based on the bioclimatic indices. Parasitological diagnosis was performed using conventional qualitative and quantitative coprological methods, abiding by the recommendations about the diagnosis of parasitic diseases. In 38 \u2013 46 % of soil samples and 40 % of sand samples seven species of endoparasites were diagnosed. In the samples of soil, a medium and high degree of contamination with the ascarid\n                    <jats:italic>T. canis<\/jats:italic>\n                    (14 \u2013 22 %) was detected, as well as a low and medium degree of contamination with ancylostomatids (4 \u2013 12 %), and in the samples of sand, a variable degree of contamination with the helminths\n                    <jats:italic>T. canis<\/jats:italic>\n                    (26 %) and\n                    <jats:italic>A. alata<\/jats:italic>\n                    (16 %) was found.
