The Forest Layer is a layer in the Underground World of Donkey Kong Bananza, occupying sublayers 600 to 602. It can either be the sixth or the seventh layer visited, depending on if the player selects to go here or to the Freezer Layer in The Divide. It is a large forest with poison covering much of the sublayers, and is populated by ostriches. At the center of sublayer 600 is the Eggshell Hotel, which is a golden, egg-shaped hotel staffed by the ostriches, and is also where the Ostrich Elder is found.

Abracajabya serves as its boss.

Banandium Gems[edit]

Main article: List of Banandium Gems in the Forest Layer

There are a total of ninety-one Banandium Gems (seventy-nine regular gems and four bunches of 3) in the Forest Layer. During Donkey Kong's first visit to this layer, he can collect seventy-one Banandium Gems and three bunches of 3 Gems. After Donkey Kong defeats King K. Rool in New Donk City and collects at least 400 Banandium Gems, eight more Gems and another bunch of 3 Gems become available to collect as part of the Ostrich Elder's Rehearsal.
