Lagunitas-Forest Knolls is located at 38°0′54″N, 122°41′38″W (38.015064, -122.693874)[1].

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 11.0 square kilometers (4.2 sq mi), all land.

San Geronimo Creek (a.k.a. Paper Mill Creek) runs through both towns, which is one of few remaining spawning grounds for Coho Salmon.

The towns line the western end of the San Geronimo Valley, extending into the forested south ridges and slightly into the grassier northern ones.

Lagunitas is on the western border of the Samuel P. Taylor California State Park. Like the park, Lagunitas-Forest Knolls and the surrounding environs are lushly vegitated with large areas of coniferous forrests.
