15. Woodland Mansion with a Village 1208416085

A castle awaiting its king

Woodland mansions are notoriously hard to find in Minecraft. If you’ve searched everywhere and keep coming up empty, try this seed. The mansion is not far from the spawn point and stuffed full of loot.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Amazing rare gear awaits you inside the mansion. After you’ve collected it and defeated the mobs, move in if you want to live like a king.
  • The village at the foot of the mansion is full of friendly villagers and great resources.
  • Don’t forget to visit the abandoned Nether portal and Illager tower on your way to the mansion.

14. Marooned -782825413 (evilfrogs)

Whoops!

Your ship has crashed into a tiny island in the middle of a sprawling ocean! You may not be the best ship captain, but are you a good survivalist? Make the most of your limited supplies and see if you have what it takes.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Test your resourcefulness! Only the bare minimum is available, so waste not.
  • No trees. That may not sound awesome, but it does present a fresh challenge.
  • If you’re successful, you can get off the shipwreck and land on an island. But is the island safe?

13. Mushroom Island 64093444 (chill)

There's something wrong with these cows...

Mushroom islands are not something you see every day. If you’re a fan of fungi, this is the spore - er, seed - for you. Say hi to some Mooshrooms on the island before you investigate the shipwreck nearby.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • The shipwreck contains just tons of valuable loot! Aside from emeralds, items, and food, you’ll find…
  • ...A map for buried treasure! Who doesn’t love a treasure hunt?
  • Everything is easy to find. You can be a weird mushroom pirate if that’s what you’re into.

Who wouldn't want to live here?

This gorgeous seaside village is spawned just for you. The opposite of a challenge, this seed has everything you could ever want. A forest full of trees, a rich ocean, a great village, and tons of resources are yours for the taking. 

What is awesome about this seed:

11. Beautiful Forest Hills 3427891657823464

Better turn on your coordinates - it looks easy to get lost in this forest

“Beautiful” is an understatement. There are tourist destinations less scenic than this stunning seed. Enjoy the scenery for a moment before you dive into the forest and pretend to be Bear Grylls. 

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Forest hills are a wealth of ore and wood. You’ll have a great mountain home and a stash of strong tools in no time.

10. Extreme Hills Lava Fall 321708923

Looks a bit like Pompeii

This seed looks intimidating because it is. A stunning waterfall made of lava pours from an extreme hill into a placid lake behind a desert village. Build an incredible sandcastle and you’ll rule the desert village.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Obsidian, anyone? The lava fall plunges straight into the water, making obsidian collection easy. If you’re a fan of the Nether, this will fast track your portal build.
  • Enjoy a wide variety of biomes stuffed with ore and raw materials. The village has plenty of loot, too.

9. Smallest Island Ever -3115927715480771327

I spy with my little eye...

Without a doubt, this is the smallest island you’ll ever spawn on. It’s just three blocks! There’s more to explore here if you’re willing to go diving. Swim a bit and you can start mining a Snowy Tundra. 

What is awesome about this seed:

  • The challenge of living on a tiny island presents great obstacles for you to overcome.
  • A house built on stilts (or, stilt) would fit on the island, but that’s about it. If you’ve ever wanted to live on a private island, you’ll find solitude aplenty here.
  • Try building an igloo! It may be tall and skinny, but you can mine enough materials from the nearby tundra.

I dare you to peek out the window of this tower

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Get rich quick! You’ll have to free solo it, but if you climb down into the ravine, you can collect plenty of diamonds.
  • An ice spikes biome is not too far away, and it’s stuffed with even more diamonds.

6. Mountain Village with a Dungeon -1231267014

There may be some skeletons in these closets

This village has some dark secrets. A dark dungeon, to be exact. Walk through the forest to find a village that looks pleasant enough from a distance, but enter the cave in the mountain and discover what evil lurks within.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • A monster spawner inside the dungeon is waiting to be defeated. 
  • There are at least three villages within close range, one of which is populated entirely by zombies.
  • When you’re done slaying monsters, check out the mountain biome rich with valuable ore.

5. Bamboo Forest with Pandas 1959330209

One of the few places to find pandas in the wild

Aww, who doesn’t love pandas? Just like in the real world, Minecraft pandas are very rare. If you’d like to see one up close, spawn in this dense bamboo forest. A great jungle biome borders the bamboo forest, so you won’t be lacking for resources if you decide to settle down here.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Pandas are friendly mobs that don’t do much of anything except look adorable. You can breed them to make your very own panda zoo.
  • The jungle biome is massive. There’s more than enough to do in there, but if you keep going, you’ll find the ocean.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Are you a fan of zombies? Yes? Great! There are plenty to go around. You hate zombies, you say? Well, you can unleash your rage and kill them all, then.
  • Unlike many great seeds, this one is available in Bedrock.

Hold your breath!

1.Mesa -8427444967367737379

Did you bring your camera? These views are stunning!

This seed will drop you off in a breathtaking mesa biome. The colorful layers of sediment are striking in the massive chasms and buttes. There are not a lot of trees around, so you’ll have to be clever when you build.

What is awesome about this seed:

  • Beware the cave spider spawner! Those mobs are not going to let you move in on their territory without a fight.
