The forest is a vast woodland area that takes up a large portion of the land in Camp Wawanakwa.
A large number of challenges take place in the forest. The forest contains a varied wildlife, most notably bears and the Sasquatchanakwa. The woods were most prominently featured in The Sucky Outdoors, and played a large part in the challenge in Are We There Yeti? The forest is also shown in Total Drama Action, once again playing a role in some of the challenges. The forest itself did not appear in Total Drama World Tour, as Camp Wawanakwa was not showcased during the season. However, it had a brief cameo appearance in a never-before-seen exclusive clip revealed in the first episode of Total Drama World Tour Aftermath.

This season's forest is not in at Camp Wawanakwa, as the camp sank in The Final Wreck-ening. Instead, there is a new forest placed on a new island named Pahkitew Island. It is also where the Pimâpotew Kinosewak construct their treehouse that remains until the end of the season, serving as shelter for them. The contestants participate in several challenges in the forest and forage for food for their teammates. Due to the island being mechanical, the scenery also has the ability to change. Trees, rocks, and other pieces can be controlled from the main control center located underneath the island.
