About woodcutting

Woodcutting is a gathering skill that primarily involves chopping trees to obtain logs used in the Fletching and Firemaking skills. Players with a higher woodcutting level can chop down new types of trees and cut down trees quicker. As levels increase, players can use better hatchets which further increase the speed of cutting trees.

Note: These xp rates are based on a maxed player.

Woodcutting supplies

All you need to start woodcutting, is a hatchet (other word for hatchet is axe). You can buy it from the skilling tools store at Edgeville (use the in-game command ::shops for quick access).

Remember that ironmen are not able to buy axes from the skilling tool store. The best way to get axes as an ironman, is to make them with the Smithing or get it from a drop.

Woodcutting locations

The best places to train woodcutting are Seers Village, donator zone and the Woodcutting guild.

Seers village

Donator zone

If you are donator, go to the donator zone through the donator tab. Run to the east to find the trees.

Woodcutting guild

Go through the gates westbound. After that you will find all kind of trees. Beyond the magic trees you can climb up a ladder to find redwood trees.
