We evaluate the distance to pulsars and the location of the effective scattering layer of turbulent medium along the line of sight on the base of analysis diffractive and refractive scintillation of pulsars. In some cases our estimations of distances to pulsars as more than 3 times differ from the values quoted in the TML pulsar catalog.
