Various equipment may be used to interact with trees. Most trees require an axe to chop.

Fastest experience
To gain Woodcutting experience most efficiently, players should always drop the logs they cut. Players should quickly drop their items by holding the shift key and clicking on the logs.
Levels 1–26: Questing
Completing Monk's Friend, Enlightened Journey, Icthlarin's Little Helper, and the Skrach Uglogwee subquest of Recipe for Disaster grants a total of 9,000 experience. This will get the player from level 1 to 26.
Levels 1–15: Regular trees
From level 1 to 15, the player should cut regular trees. Each log gives 25 Woodcutting experience. 97 logs are required to reach level 15.
Levels 15–35: Oak trees
From level 15 to 35, the player should cut oak trees. Each log gives 37.5 Woodcutting experience. 534 logs are required to reach level 35.
Even though willow trees become available at level 30, cutting oak trees offers slightly faster experience at these levels.
Levels 35–99: Teak trees
Cutting teak trees offers the fastest Woodcutting experience in the game when using tick manipulation. If the player is not using any sort of tick manipulation, cutting teak trees offers the fastest experience only up to level 65.
1.5-tick woodcutting teaks on Fossil Island is the fastest training method in the game. 1.5-tick woodcutting is done by setting up a 3-tick cycle (such as using swamp tar on a clean herb) and alternating tiles next to the hardwood patches. When timed correctly, the player has a chance to receive two logs at once every three ticks. Planted teak trees have a 1/8 chance to fell and they do not have a depletion timer, unlike the teak trees found elsewhere.
Using the best felling axe available with forester's rations will offer the fastest experience rates. The forester's rations also restore run energy, which makes stamina potions unnecessary for this method.
Experience rates for 1.5-tick woodcutting are shown in the table below. The rates assume using the best regular axe available up to level 61, the dragon felling axe for levels 61–71, and the crystal felling axe from level 71 onwards. Long-term rates can vary depending on performance. At maximum efficiency, it is possible to gain up to around 255,000 experience per hour at level 99 when using the crystal felling axe. Because the method is difficult and click-intensive, players are more likely to see rates closer to 230,000–240,000 experience per hour.

2-tick woodcutting teaks is a slightly slower, but less attention- and click-intensive alternative to 1.5-tick woodcutting teaks on Fossil Island. 2-tick woodcutting is done by auto-retaliating to being attacked every two ticks and clicking on a tree. When done correctly, the player has a chance to receive logs every two ticks instead of four due to the way Auto Retaliate works.
Players can 2-tick teaks on Ape Atoll and Isle of Souls using birds, or in Prifddinas using rabbits. In Prifddinas the player will gain some crystal shards.
To start 2-tick woodcutting, draw aggressiveness from the birds or rabbits without killing them (such as casting Confuse or Wind Strike). Equip a 2-tick or 3-tick weapon that cannot perform attacks, such as a shortbow on rapid without ammunition. Turn on Auto Retaliate and get two monsters attacking you such that a hitsplat appears every two ticks. This can be accomplished by walking under the monsters if they are on the same tile to split them up, then getting one stuck on a tree or bush. When this is done, manoeuvre the two around until you are stood between two teak trees with both enemies attacking you. On each tick that a hitsplat appears on the player click a teak tree, and on each off-tick either click the ground at the base of a teak tree or drop a teak log.
Players with low Defence may be hit by birds and can minimise the damage they take by using a regen bracelet and a Hunters' crossbow with a shield instead of a shortbow. Rabbits are unable to hit the player.
Experience rates for 2-tick woodcutting are shown in the table below. The rates assume using the best regular axe available up to level 61, the dragon felling axe for levels 61–71, and the crystal felling axe from level 71 onwards. Long-term rates can vary depending on performance. At maximum efficiency, it is possible to gain up to 223,000 experience per hour at level 99 when using the crystal felling axe.

Without tick manipulation it is recommended to cut teaks only up to level 65, after which cutting sulliusceps offers faster experience. The experience rates for cutting teaks without tick manipulation are shown in the table below. The rates assume using the best regular axe available up to level 61, the dragon felling axe for levels 61–71, and the crystal felling axe from level 71 onwards. Equipping a forestry kit and completing the forestry events that spawn can increase the rates by roughly 20,000 experience per hour.
