Makna Forest (Japanese: マクナ原生林, Makuna Genseirin, lit. Makuna Primeval Forest, alt. Macuna Woods; English dub: /ˈmæknə/) is a jungle area visited by Shulk and friends in Xenoblade Chronicles. It is located on Bionis' back. It can be entered through the Bionis' Interior. The main village is the sole Nopon village on Bionis, Frontier Village. Valak Mountain can also be accessed through Makna Forest.

Xenoblade Chronicles[]
View of Makna Forest
At the same time that the party reaches Makna Forest, Melia drives off a Telethia, losing her personal guards in the process.
Meanwhile, the group notes that the heat is unbearable (due to being at the back of the Bionis) and decide to look for the Nopon village.
After traveling deeper into the forest, they find Melia unconscious, and Shulk recognizes her from his visions. Upon closer inspection, Sharla notes that she is suffering from a lack of Ether. Shulk sets off to find some pure Ether Crystals.
At a nearby Lakeside, Shulk finds the Crystals and is met by young man, who is able to wield the Monado without issue. The man mentions to Shulk that the Monado can be controlled and teaches Shulk how to use the Purge Ability to stop the Puera Telethia who attack. After a difficult battle, Shulk slays the Telethia, and is found by Reyn. The mysterious man from before disappears.
After this, Melia is revived and the gang prepare to continue their quest; Melia advises they head for Frontier Village, the only settlement in this area.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3[]
When Z used Origin to create Aionios, parts of Makna Forest combined with the Land of Morytha to create Maktha Wildwood, while the Agni's Tomb Ruins became part of the Aurora Shelf.
