Global Forest Watch positions Lithuania as the leader in forest expansion across the Baltics.

Between 2014 and 2024, Lithuania’s tree cover grew by 10.1%, while canopy loss was just 4.9%. Satellite insights from Global Forest Watch show Lithuania outpacing most of Europe in forest gain.

This trend reflects strong stewardship: trees are growing not only in forests, but across parks, roadsides, private and mixed-use land. Today, tree cover exceeds 2.28 million hectares – more than the country’s official forest area.

At Forest Math, we help institutional investors turn this momentum into long-term value through forest portfolios built with clarity and data.

This summary is based on the latest article by Lithuania’s Ministry of Environment.
