The forest is a landscape loaded with symbolism that has been commonly referenced throughout history in art and literature. From popular fiction to traditional fairy tales, the forest can represent the human psyche, the unknown, danger and magic – untameable and inhabited by strange and bewildering creatures. In other contexts, such as health and wellbeing, the forest is often promoted as a place to visit to reconnect with the natural environment. Forests are some of the most biodiverse places on Earth and a vital part of our ecosystem.
