The Forest

The Forest is one of the six regions of Appalachia in 2102.

It is the first region the player character explores after emerging from Vault 76.

Background
The region surrounding Vault 76 was known as "the Forest" to the survivors of Appalachia. Still rich in plant and animal life, it is an ideal place to scrounge for food and water. Although relatively untouched by the bombs, the Forest is still home to the mutated beasts that now roam the countryside. Survivors even reported finding mutated plants with unusual properties. Near the Vault 76 construction site is the small town of Flatwoods, which was home to a local motel, tavern, and church. Vault-Tec projections for the survivability of the area's residents were not optimistic.

The Forest is a region of Appalachia characterized by lush forests growing on rugged terrain, winding rivers and diverse wildlife. The forest growing throughout this region has discolored foliage similar to that seen in early autumn. The area is home to pre-War towns including Charleston and Point Pleasant, as well as landmarks such as Landview Lighthouse and the Whitespring Resort.

Layout
The Forest is in the center-west portion of the Appalachia map, to the north of the Ash Heap, south of the Toxic Valley and west of the Savage Divide.

Appearances
The Forest appears only in Fallout 76.
