How to find any biome in Minecraft?

In this guide, we'll cover two ways to find biomes in Minecraft: with an in-game command (the main and fastest method) and through the Chunkbase website, which comes in handy on older versions or when you want to plan a route across your world map visually.

Method One

This method works on version 1.19.10.23 and later. If you're on an earlier version, skip to Method Two.

• When creating a world or in its settings, turn on the «Cheats» option, the command won't work without it.

• Open the chat (the T key or the on-screen button) and start typing /locate biome. The game will immediately suggest a list of available biomes, for example 'minecraft:bamboo_jungle', 'minecraft:cherry_grove', 'minecraft:deep_dark', and others.

• Complete the command with the name of the biome, for example /locate biome minecraft:deep_dark. On a keyboard, it's convenient to use the Tab key for autocomplete so you don't make a typo in the name.

• Press Enter or the send button, and a message will appear in the chat with the coordinates of the nearest biome and the distance to it, for example: «The nearest minecraft:deep_dark is at block -1780, -43 -1538 (1742 blocks away)».

• Travel to the biome on foot using these coordinates, or teleport with the command /tp <coordinates from the message>. For the example above, that's /tp -1780 -43 -1538.

Tip: structures are found the same way with the command /locate structure <structure name>. The principle is the same: you get the coordinates in the chat and then travel to the spot or teleport.

Method Two

This method comes in handy if you're on an older version of the game without the /locate command, or if you'd like to see your world map visually and plan a route in advance.

• So, head over to the website https://www.chunkbase.com/apps/seed-map. You'll see roughly the following window:

• Seed: enter your world's seed here (or any other one you need)
• Version: choose your game version. For example, Bedrock 1.19 (Beta)
• Dimension: leave it on Overworld, or choose the Nether or the End if needed

• Next, find the coordinates field.
• Enter the X and Z coordinates of your location and click the «Go!» button.

• Check the Highlight biomes box and select the biomes you want in the field next to it. This way the selected biomes will be highlighted in color, which makes them easy to find.

• Hover over the biome or structure you want, and the coordinates will appear below. Note them down and use them in Minecraft (teleport or walk to the spot)!
• (if there's a comma, it stands for thousands, so "1,241.5" in the screenshot below means "1241.5").

And that's it! You can use both the command and the website for all kinds of purposes.
