the forbidden forest, also known as dark forest or black forest, borders the edges of the hogwarts grounds. as its name suggests, it is strictly off limits to students - except in the case of detention, or care of magical creatures lessons that occasionally take place there. of course, with the various dangerous creatures living in the forest, few students would probably even want to venture into it.

the hogwarts greenhouses are where herbology classes are taught. the greenhouses were also used by the potions club. the greenhouses have statues of long, serpentine dragons running along the peaked roofs. they are home to many exotic and magical plants including some that are extremely rare, difficult to cultivate and maintain, or even dangerous, such as the venomous tentacula.

students may begin visiting here when their third year starts. this village is just outside hogwarts, meaning it is in walking distance from the castle. many well known shops can be found here. these shops are often occupied by students, who spend gold on candy, butterbeer, and many other things.
