They kind of have the same meaning.
'The dark parts of the forest' is more natural.
Most people won't understand the first.

@Lu_sg People would understand you in both cases however the first one sounds more formal. Like if you're telling a story to children..they won't understand 'the dark recesses'

@Lu_sg They both mean the same thing. 'Recesses' is just uncommon.

Darkest parts of the forest
Darkest recesses of the forest
'Darkest places of the forest' sounds a little off, so you can say 'Darkest areas of the forest'
