forested
Dense with trees
Forested describes land covered with trees—woods or forest: a densely forested hillside, forested areas of the Pacific Northwest.
The term implies substantial tree coverage, not just scattered growth.
Land can become forested through natural succession or deliberate planting, and deforested when trees are removed.
