Landslide processes are growing problem in Polish part of Western Carpathians. We discuss application of electric resistivity tomography (ERT) survey for flysch landslide site description. Refering to sites of known geological context, and surveyed with seismic refraction method we are able to distinguish resistivity signal of landslide deposits from signal of bedrock. Such approach alowed us to indicate usefull information to be obtained from ERT surveys, as well as shortcomings of the method
