Wat is 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.

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, type ::dz to go to the donator zone. 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.

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 and run to the west to find him).

Woodcutting master

Like I said, the woodcutting master can be found at Seers Village, donator zone and other places. In his shop you can find the rune axe, dragon axe, infernal axe and the 3rd age axe (best axe in-game) which are buyable with obtaining woodcutting points. Beside that he can give you your skilling cape for free when you reach level 99. In addition, he can give you skilling tasks to obtain woodcutting points (you will also get participation points when you finish your skilling task). Finally, you can see his master's shop where you can spend your woodcutting points. It's recommended to get the lumberjack outfit, because it gives you 40% more woodcutting xp. You need 3350 points to get the full set.

This is the suggested method for 1-99 woodcutting:
