birch forest
Pale-trunked tree stand
A birch forest is a woodland dominated by birch trees, typically characterized by pale bark and slender trunks that create a distinctive light-filled atmosphere.
These forests are common in northern regions with cold climates: We hiked through a birch forest in Finland.
The term describes both natural stands and the ecosystem they support.
