A village built, as the name suggests, entirely out of treehouses. Rope bridges typically connect the structures to one another, and ladders are typically used to access the community from ground level. Dangling creepers may also be used for transport. A common form of Bamboo Technology, although more magical versions can be seen as well. This can often be found within the Enchanted Forest and the Hungry Jungle. Wood elves are frequent inhabitants of such a place, and it has become an often-used version of the Hidden Elf Village. Often, undying or otherwise long-lived elves may outlive the trees and have to relocate every few decades or centuries. In other cases, winged creatures such as Bird People may make their homes among the boughs — the gaps between trees aren't a significant issue if you can fly, after all. Monkeys, monkey-people and similar arboreal beings are also likely to be found in towns like these. Natives of these settlements may be isolationists seeking to avoid the attention of other people by raising their cities above where they could be stumbled into and hiding them within the canopy. In other cases, these may be built in areas where staying on the forest floor is dangerous, such as in wildernesses teeming with predators. In some cases, such as when the town's builders are very small or the trees very large, an entire city may be built within the branches of a single tree. Compare Treehouse of Fun and Arboreal Abode. Tree Trunk Tour is the sister trope that takes place in the trees instead of on them. For a more extreme variant, where entire civilizations can exist purely within tree canopies, see Treetop World. For the logical extreme, see World Tree. |

Fallout 76: Multiple examples can be found in the Mire, a region of swampland covered by very thick plant growth. Tanagra Town is essentially a giant clod of rock, dirt and junk that's been ripped from the ground and lifted into the air by huge vines. Treehouse Village is a collection of treehouses, each built on its own platform in the branches of a different tree. It was originally built by a group of survivors to have somewhere safe to live above and hidden from the mutated creatures of the Mire and the raiders periodically coming down from the nearby mountains. It was eventually discovered and abandoned, but was reclaimed sometime before the game's start and is inhabited again. Treetops consist of a number of sets of platforms and stairways spiraling up several large trees, and like Treehouse Village was built by a group of isolated survivors seeking to avoid the many dangers of the Mire. Unlike the former, however, it's long abandoned. |

Realm of the Elderlings: Trehaug is an entire city made of tree houses and inhabited by homebound intrepid merchants. It's a veritable maze of gangways, ladders and circular rooms built on platforms around tree trunks, and the houses in its upper layers hang from their supports for lack of stout branches to stand on. This is because right underneath Trehaug there's an ancient Elderling city that's been buried by some past cataclysm and the Rain Wild River, the waters of which are caustic and flood the forest yearly, runs right beside it. The Rain Wilders spend their time uncovering the Elderling city and plundering its magical artefacts, a good part of which goes towards keeping Trehaug functioning. | |

Might and Magic: The sprites' dwellings in Heroes of Might and Magic I and II are a variant of this — seemingly too small for most humanoids (since sprites are rather diminutive creatures), and lacking both rope bridges and ladders (since sprites fly and therefore don't need them). Of course, only the ones found in the wild are technically villages (since the ones in towns are a part of a larger settlement where most dwellings don't look like that), but treetop neighbourhoods fit the spirit, if not the alliteration, of the trope close enough. | |

World of Warcraft: Arakkoa villages are textbook examples: ground access is via a winding staircase within the tree, and most inhabitants live on interconnected platforms on top of the strongest branches. Darnassus, the Night Elven capital city is built on top of the giant tree Teldrassil, but is fairly level and has streets and stone structures. Troll villages, like Zabra'jin, are on the ground but are constructed out of wood and have rope bridges connecting the upper floors. |

Planescape: These are very common in Arborea and the Beastlands, two planes characterized by superlative wildernesses and large populations of elves and of arboreal and flying creatures. Al Karak Elam-Jhankal is a city inhabited by winged elves — al karak elam, as they name themselves — built within the canopy of a towering forest in the Beastlands. The city is made out of platforms around the tree trunks, hanging rope bridges and buildings woven out of living branches, and is very extensive in order to accommodate its citizens' need to fly. The buildings are a mile off the ground at their lowest point, and the city can reach half a mile of vertical thickness. The elves share it with a number of flying creatures, including a great many birds and a colony of giant eagles. The apelike beastmen of the Lost Plateau live in treetop villages, in order to protect themselves from the dinosaurs who rule the jungle floor. Grandfather Oak, the largest and oldest tree in the plane of Arborea, is home to a large community of elves and treants who live in a village built on his branches and within immense knotholes in his trunk. |

The Forest: This is an option for player bases. There are special platforms that can be built around tree trunks, which can in turn have other things built on top of them. Ropes can hang down from them, and they can be connected to each other by hanging bridges. They make reasonably defensible areas against the Forest's natives, although some mutants can knock over trees. | |

Exalted: The peoples of the Eastern forests often live in villages built upon massive trees. The Haltans, native to the immense redwood forests of the Northeast, are the most notable example, and their entire civilization lives in cities built on platforms held among the trees' branches. The trees are large enough to hold multiple such platforms — some cities can be six layers deep — and an extensive system of raised bridges connects all settlements. Haltans can go their whole lives without touching the ground, which is good — their treaties with The Fair Folk give the latter free run of the ground but forbid them from hunting amidst the trees. Halta is also home to several beastmen and talking animals, most based on arboreal creatures such as monkeys and giant spiders or flying ones such as owls, hawks and bats. Orak-Tau, a city within the Labyrinth in the Underworld, is a bizarre inversion. Rather than being built among tree branches, it's built within and hanging from a massive tangle of roots hanging from the ceiling of an immense cavern. Fittingly, it can be accessed by climbing into certain tree hollows in the East and heading down, among other methods. Mount Kahikatea, an ancient city of the First Age, was a particularly unusual example. It was built on top of a three-mile-high kahikatea trees, which grew on top of and around one another to form a literal mountain of interlocked, living boughs. The city itself consisted of grand wooden palaces and buildings built on top of this collective canopy, alongside a maze of tunnels and chambers snaking among the branches, roots and trunks of the forest. |

Pathfinder: The grippli are a species of humanoid tree frogs who build their towns high in the canopies of rainforests, hiding them in the deepest, most impassable thickets and getting about through thin rope bridges and their innate climbing skills. The Mualijae elves of the Mwangi jungles often live in cities built on platforms perched on top of the highest rainforest trees, each large enough to hold several houses and connected to the others by long bridges. The arboreal monkey goblins of Meidogalti Island live in Ganda-Uj, a ramshackle collection of huts, platforms and bridges hanging from the jungle trees. Selona, a city in the First World of the fey, is built entirely in the canopy of Usu, a single tree of immense size. Its university district is built within a massive hollowed-out bole, while a formerly posh district was turned to ruins when a lightning strike set a part of the tree aflame. |

Green-Sky Trilogy: The Kindar keep their entire civilization up in the massive Grund trees, and are forbidden from walking on the forest floor because of lurking monsters. Some Kindar, particularly infants who fall, but even adults, can be caught unaware and are never seen again. The monster part isn't true. The real reason is so that the Kindar don't run into people the Ol-Zhaan priesthood exiled — and the descendants of those exiled or fallen. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: In most settings, wood elves prefer to live in cities hidden within the canopies of their home forests. Dragonlance: The town of Solace was built in the boughs of huge trees as defence against goblin raiders. The only buildings on the ground are the stables (because you can't get horses to climb trees), the blacksmith's (because of the fire risk), and for a while, the Inn of the Last Home (which was pulled out of its tree by a dragon during the wars, but later restored). Mystara: In The Elves of Alfheim, the Alfheim elves have various tree houses connected by ladders and catwalks. The "Sky City" area in Alfheim Town is a network of rope bridges and catwalks connecting "treeforts" in the huge Sentinel Trees. And then you also have the "you'll walk right under it and never notice" type of Wood Elf settlements everywhere. Planescape: These are very common in Arborea and the Beastlands, two planes characterized by superlative wildernesses and large populations of elves and of arboreal and flying creatures. Al Karak Elam-Jhankal is a city inhabited by winged elves — al karak elam, as they name themselves — built within the canopy of a towering forest in the Beastlands. The city is made out of platforms around the tree trunks, hanging rope bridges and buildings woven out of living branches, and is very extensive in order to accommodate its citizens' need to fly. The buildings are a mile off the ground at their lowest point, and the city can reach half a mile of vertical thickness. The elves share it with a number of flying creatures, including a great many birds and a colony of giant eagles. The apelike beastmen of the Lost Plateau live in treetop villages, in order to protect themselves from the dinosaurs who rule the jungle floor. Grandfather Oak, the largest and oldest tree in the plane of Arborea, is home to a large community of elves and treants who live in a village built on his branches and within immense knotholes in his trunk. Dragon: In the first worked example setting in the "Dungeoncraft" column, the players' home base of Ironoak is built into the trees, in keeping with the concept that Aris is a world of forests. In the centre of town is a magic-powered elevator. |

The Lord of the Rings: Many buildings in Lothlórien are built on top of circular platforms, known as flets, which wrap around the trunks of the mallorn trees and are only reachable by rope ladder. While most of the ones around the edges of the forest are simply watch-posts, the city of Caras Galadhon is built almost entirely on top of such flets, with the largest of all supporting the house where Galadriel and Celeborn live. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga: Little Fungitown is a variant — it's a town built on top of giant mushrooms. Mario Kart 8: The Wild Woods stage takes place through a village inhabited by Shy Guys and built inside and upon an immense tree. Super Mario Fusion Revival has World 5-7: Yolkfolk Village. This level is based on the Dizzy series of video games, made by Codemasters in the late 1980's to early 1990's. There is very little solid ground, and the main means of traversing this level is by rail lifts. |

Kult: Heretic Kingdoms: Kyallisar isn't a tree-top town at all, but it does share a few characteristics with them (such as a large number of rope bridges). This is because it's built on a series of small, disconnected, rocky outcrops, with big chasms separating them. The topography created by this is much the same as if it were elevated in trees. | |

Malcolm in the Middle: A variation is shown. When Dewey is transferred out of the special education program, the other students run away from home because they need his leadership, since Dewey was the only one mentally capable of standing up to the teacher and getting what was needed from the school. They begin living in the neighborhood trees, and he's able to provide them with food and other amenities they need. The reason Dewey doesn't tell on them is because they blackmailed him into not saying anything, though when they get found out, their teacher heavily implies they will be severely punished when they get back to school, and Dewey gets himself brought back into the program to stand up for them. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The griffon city of Griffonstone resembles a collection birdhouses and nests built among the roots and perched on the branches of an immense dead tree rooted on a mountain peak. The hippogriffs of Mount Aris live within enormous living trees, with doors at their bases, windows spiraling up their trunks and large, glass-sided chambers nested in the canopies, their walls growing directly from the trunks. A significant portion of the kirin's village consists of treehouses built high in the boughs of their forest and connected by rope bridges. |

Yokoka's Quest: Everyone in Betel's Forest lives in treehouses (aside from Betelgeuse as she's too big), with some at ground level and others among the branches. There are steps between the levels, though Yokoka herself jumps down or climbs up the trees instead. | |

Myst: The Channelwood Age a city of treehouses connected by bridges and water-pressure-powered elevators in a forest growing out of the ocean — it used to be an island, but a series of quakes sank it a long time ago. The ground the trees are growing from is in pieces and deep underwater. Riven: The village in the Moiety Age is built in the boughs of a giant tree. There used to be a similar tree in Riven, but Gehn had it cut down. |

Rifts: Millenium Trees are trees over a thousand feet in height which naturally grow giant burls subdivided into internal floors (between three and sixteen) and with naturally perforated walls. These readily serve as habitable apartment complexes with a little preparation, and as an individual plant can grow around thirty or so burls most tree support sizable communities in their canopies. | |

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire: Fortree City is made up of leaf-roofed huts built on platforms in the trees, connected by wooden bridges and reachable by ladder. This is taken to new heights (literally) in the Pokémon Adventures manga, where Sapphire and Winona have their Gym battle in the city proper rather than an actual Gym. | |

Books of the Raksura: The protagonist's colony moves into an abandoned base in a miles-high Mountain Tree, far above the ground. It's so vast that most of the rooms are grown into the tree itself, small forests of regular-sized trees grow on the branches, and the colony has no need whatsoever to visit the ground. | |

A Dragon in Shining Armour: In the sequel, Holy War, the city of Evergrowth is a Layered Metropolis version of this. The upper level of the city is just below the canopy and home to the city's businesses and government functions. Stairs that wind around the enormous trees the city is built around lead to the forest floor where the residential parts of town are. | |
