The Deep Woods is one of the strangest places in the game, and is commonly disliked among players. It can be accessed by jumping into the void in several different parts of the [[Wooded Kingdom]]. Though not commonly used in speedruns, there are a few categories that use it, namely [[100%]], [[All Moons]], and [[All Purple Coins|others]]. There are 9 [[Power Moon|power moons]] scattered throughout the Deep Woods, and 3 sets of 3 [[Regional Coins]], totaling to 9 Regional Coins. Below is a map drawn to fairly accurately depict the Deep Woods.

Here is a list of all the power moons in the Deep Woods. The power moons are listed in the order of the Wooded Kingdom power moon list.

Since there is no in-game map depicting the layout of the Deep Woods, an external map is sometimes useful for navigation. This map created by Supper Mario Broth<ref>https://twitter.com/MarioBrothBlog/status/1301195882331856897</ref> shows the approximate layout of the area, as well as the locations of various items:

In the bottom center of the map, right next to the cliff edge, is a rock. This rock contains a power moon, so either hit it until it breaks or take it over to another rock so that it breaks immediately. You can also use the dinosaur to break the rock.

Capture the Dinosaur on the path in the bottom middle of the map, and take it up to the upper left past the brook, where you will find some breakable rocks. Break them and you will find a glowing spot on the ground. [[Ground pound]] it and you will unearth a power moon. You can also use a [[Coin Coffer]] to break the blocks, but it is slower.
 
32: The Hard Rock in Deep Woods
 
Capture the Dinosaur again, but this time take it just to the right of the main tree on the map. Break the blocks and ground pound the glowing spot for the power moon. You can also use a Coin Coffer to break the blocks, but it is slower.
 
33: A Treasure Made of Coins
 
Right in the middle of the map is a [[Coin Coffer]]. Capture it and take it over to the pond, where there will be a small plant. Shoot coins at it until the moon spawns, then grab it with the dinosaur. Alternatively, a skilled jump can get you there. If you shake your controller, the Coin Coffer will spit coins in all directions. Use this to your advantage, as you can stand inside the plant, shake several times, then do something else while the plant continues to grow.
 
34: Beneath the Roots of a Moving Tree
 
At the bottom right of the map is a series of steps and a single tree at the top. Capture the tree and move it, then [[ground pound]] the glowing spot and collect the moon.
 
35: Deep Woods Treasure Trap
 
On the left side of the tree in the middle of the Dinosaur's path is a pipe. Enter it and you will find an area with three chests. Open them in the order middle, left, right, and the last one will award you with a power moon.
 
36: Exploring for Treasure
 
Don your explorer's outfit, then make your way up the brook to the top right of the map, where you can enter a room specifically for explorers. Inside is a chest containing a power moon.
