Under a canopy of pixelated pines, 99 Nights in the Forest shimmers with holiday magic. This guide maps out every glowing display, secret light trail, and rare collectible to make your Roblox Christmas nights brighter than ever.
The elves have stopped their decorations and lost their Christmas Lights. Now it’s on you to find the lights and help the elves. In this guide, you’ll learn how to find Christmas Lights in 99 Nights in the Forest and decorate Christmas Trees using them.
How to Get Christmas Lights in 99 Nights in the Forest
To get Christmas Lights in 99 Nights in the Forest, visit the decorated areas during the holiday event and search near cabins, trees, and camp paths where the lights are scattered. You can collect them by interacting with glowing spots or completing small event tasks around the forest. Some lights appear only at night, so keep an eye out for sparkling effects or festive sounds hinting at nearby items. Completing the collection rewards you with special seasonal decorations or limited-time items for your base.
The new 99 Nights in the Forest update has added Christmas Lights in the game, and finding them is easier than you’d think. Christmas Lights can be found wrapped around trees and entities, like wolves.
Noticing the Christmas Lights is very easy in the white, snowy forest. You just need to keep your eyes wide open and look around the forest. You’ll find plenty of trees, with snow on them, and Christmas Lights wrapped around. Use your axe to chop the trees down, like you’d normally. Doing so will drop three pieces of wood, along with a Christmas Light.
Similarly, the wolves in 99 Nights in the Forest will be wrapped with Christmas Lights. Hunting and killing them will give you meat and Christmas Lights. However, killing wolves might feel like a lot of work, and you might need to carry bandages and to revive teammates; if things go south, especially for new players. So, we recommend that you stick to chopping trees.
How to Decorate Christmas Trees in 99 Nights in the Forest
Decorating Christmas trees in 99 Nights in the Forest adds warmth to the snowy setting and gives your campsite a festive glow. Collect ornaments and lights scattered around the map, then use them to craft colorful decorations through the in-game workshop. Mixing classic reds and greens with shimmering white lights creates a cozy woodland style, while rare items like golden stars or glowing branches make your tree stand out. Arrange gifts or candles around the base for extra charm, and share screenshots with friends to celebrate the season together.
Now that you have some Christmas Lights, it’s time to decorate the Christmas Trees. But you cannot just decorate any Christmas Tree in the game. Rather, you need to decorate the ones that are inside the North Pole Biome.
The North Pole Biome is located on the north side of the camp. You can easily locate and even access it from the map. Santa’s Workshop is located in the North Pole Biome, along with some Gingerbread houses, a giant spinning pole, and a lot of Christmas trees. You’ll find Christmas Trees with and without snow in the North Pole Biome. The trees without snow are the ones you need to decorate using Christmas Lights.
To decorate a Christmas Tree, head towards it and hold ‘E.’ Your goal is to decorate 12 Christmas Trees in the North Pole Biome to complete the event. This will also activate all the lights in the area, and the elves can peacefully start working on Santa’s workshop again. You’ll even notice a cutscene, which we won’t spoil as it’s something enjoyable.
All Rewards for Decorating 99 Nights in the Forest Christmas Trees
Rewards trail for decorating 99 Nights in the Forest Christmas Trees showcases a delightful mix of seasonal flair and cozy ambiance, rewarding players with unique skins, decor items, and limited-time boosts that celebrate the woodland theme.
Honestly, there aren’t many rewards that you can get for decorating Christmas Trees. You can only get Candy Canes by decorating each Christmas Trees.
The Candy Canes you get can be used to buy items and 99 Nights in the Forest classes from the Christmas Elf Shop. Each tree gives three to four Candy Canes when decorated. You’ll have to decorate at least 12 trees, as discussed. This will result in a total of 36 to 48 Candy Canes per run. You can even decorate a few more if you want some extra canes, as they’ll come in handy to buy items from the shop.
Best route to collect Christmas Lights fastest
The fastest way to collect Christmas Lights in 99 Nights in the Forest is to run a tight loop through only the highest-yield spawn spots (trees and mobs that can drop lights) instead of wandering randomly.
General principles
-
Focus only on trees that visibly have lights wrapped around them and mobs that visibly wear lights; chopping or killing “plain” ones wastes time.
-
Run a repeatable loop close to your base so you minimize travel time and maximize time spent farming trees and enemies.
Example early-game loop
-
Start from your main camp, head toward the nearest forest area where you commonly see lit trees, and clear only those, ignoring regular trees.
-
On the way back, kill any wolves with lights you see, then return to camp to empty inventory and immediately re-run the same path.
North-leaning mid-game loop
-
Once you know the path toward the North Pole biome, make a loop that goes from camp toward the North Pole and back, farming every lit tree and lit mob along the route.
-
Avoid pushing fully into the North Pole each run; the goal is to repeatedly clear the “corridor” where lit trees and mobs respawn, then go back, reset, and repeat.
Efficiency tips
-
Keep your axe upgraded so you one- or two-shot most lit trees, and avoid stopping to craft while on a run; do all crafting between loops.
-
Aim to collect slightly more than the 12 lights you need for the trees so you do not have to come back if you misplace one.
If you describe your current map knowledge (where your camp is and where you usually see lit trees), a more precise, directional route can be sketched for your setup.
Which tools speed up outdoor light removal most
The tools that speed up outdoor Christmas light removal the most are extension tools for reach, organizers for storage, and a few basic hand tools for snagged clips.
Fastest-removal tools
-
Extension pole with hook: Lets you lift strands off gutters, trees, and eaves without moving a ladder constantly, which cuts removal time significantly.
-
Light-clip removal pole/head: Some holiday-lighting poles have specific heads that pop gutter/roof clips free quickly, reducing time spent prying clips by hand.
-
TreE-Z-style wraps or similar tree-wrap systems: If your lights were installed using reusable wraps instead of tight winding, they come off in long, controlled sections instead of getting tangled.
Tools that prevent tangles and rework
-
Large plastic reels or cord winders: Winding each strand on a reel as you remove it prevents knotting and makes next year’s install faster.
-
Heavy-duty storage tubs: Labelled bins for roof, trees, bushes, etc. mean you spend far less time sorting and testing later.
Helpful basic hand tools
-
Rubber mallet: Useful if you used specialty light line or sockets; professionals use a mallet to knock off extra sockets and sometimes to tap stubborn clips loose without damaging trim.
-
Insulated gloves and safety gear: Good gloves protect against sharp shingles, clips, and cold, letting you move faster and with fewer breaks.
If you describe your setup (one-story vs two-story, trees vs roofline, what clips you used), more tailored tool suggestions can be given.
