Woods
This copy was last processed on . The copied wiki revision is dated .
Woods, forests, and jungles refer to many wooded locations throughout the world of Gielinor. By definition, woods are typically smaller than forests, but in Old School RuneScape, the title of "woods" largely comes from what the nearby villages apply to an area. As such, "woods" and "forest" are used interchangeably.
This page will serve to mention all locations referred in-game as "jungles", "forests", or "woods", as well as documenting all locations with "wood" and "forest" in their official title.
