Forests of Northern Gor This is the largest forest area on Gor. It covers hundreds of thousands of square pasangs. The most typical tree is the lofty, reddish Tur tree that may grow to two hundred feet or more. They are north of Laura and no one knows how far east they go. They extend north to Torvaldsland, past the northern ridges of the Thentis Mountains. The forests are home to various outlaws, forest people and panther girls.
Rainforest of Schendi A vast rain forest covering thousands of square pasangs on the equator. It's western border is the Thassa and it's port of Schendi.
