Kiya has maps of the Dark Forest on her web site. The 4 quarters of the forest are the bottom row of thumbnails on this page. I don't know of any single pictures of the whole forest that are still available.

There is an easter egg area in the western mountains towards the north.
Silver Armour and Treasure Maps

Farther south IIRC there are some paths that you can not get to normally, but they contain nothing of interest anyway.

During play testing of DD, the Larians decided the Dark Forest was a little too big, so cut off the south east corner with a river. The house across the river was originally intended to be Boratus' house.

EASTEREGGS and RUNE manuscripts


To clear as much fog-of-war as possible, try a combination of;
  • Max Elven Sight (much more effective) and Ranger Sight (if you have the skill points to spare and really want to maximize your sight range).
  • Keep any equipment you find with sight bonuses, to use when exploring.
  • Toss a teleporter stone onto/into inaccessible regions and move around by repeatedly tossing one stone and teleporting to it (you are not suppose to be up on most mountains, across the river in the south east corner of the dark forest, etc, and will not be able to walk there).
  • Cast Wizard's Sight twice in the same location (cast it a second time before the fog-of-war fills in again from the first, and it will remain clear). Hold the shift key down to move the screen focus away from your character and towards the area you want to clear.
