The Forest Hives is a large dungeon and area in Outward located in south-eastern Enmerkar Forest, with multiple entrances.
It is marked on the map twice as "Colossal Hive". The northern marker is in-between the two main entrances to the dungeon, and the southern marker indicates the large external area which is only accessible by passing through the hives. At the northern entrance, the player can find another small dungeon - the Hive's Trap - slightly to the north.
