The Forest of Hope is the second playable area in Pikmin. On the area select map, it is the center of the vast forest in the game. It has eight ship parts scattered all over the area. Yellow Pikmin are first found in this area. This area would become the Awakening Wood in Pikmin 2.
General layout
Most of this area consists of vast plains with some gates and high walls that block the way. There is a small lake near the main plain. The most common enemies here are Red Bulborbs and Dwarf Red Bulborbs. To the north is the arena where the Armored Cannon Beetle is fought and to the southwest is the ledge where the Burrowing Snagrets are.
The bomb-rocks in this area are located inside tin cans. The first one is near the great plain with Red Bulborbs, another one is near the place where the Yellow Onion is originally found. The last can is in the place where the Nova Blaster is found. On the first day the area is visited, some are found out of the cans.
Although water defends access to the Geiger Counter, the Radiation Canopy, and the Sagittarius, it is possible to collect these parts with yellow Pikmin; thus, the area can be completed uniquely with them.
In Challenge Mode, there are a lot more Bulborbs, and Spotty Bulbears can also be found where the Armored Cannon Beetle and Burrowing Snagrets are found in story mode (the former location also has a Pearly Clamclamp).

Trivia
- It is possible to complete this area in one day. It requires going back to the Impact Site on day 2 and growing 80+ red pikmin there.
- In the late prototype stages of the game, a Puffstool was on the small plateau overlooking the lake in the place of the Burrowing Snagrets.
- The music in this area reappears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the stage called PNF404 Distant Planet.
