forested area
Land with trees
A forested area is land covered with trees and associated vegetation—essentially, a forest or woodland.
The phrase appears most often in environmental, planning, and scientific contexts: The development will clear thirty acres of forested area.
It's slightly more technical than simply saying "forest," often used when discussing land use or conservation.
