Elvenwood is a large treehouse settlement located between Falkreath & Helgen. It was constructed some time ago by Bosmeri travellers coming to Skyrim, who had been attracted by the rich forest areas within Falkreath Hold.

Note that the latest version of Elvenwood (v3. 02) has been fully cleaned with TES5Edit.
