Looking for best Minecraft 1.20 Java seeds? Version 1.20, known as the Trails and Tales update, has finally arrived after months of waiting. Complete with new blocks, biomes, mobs, and more, this version of the game should prove to have plenty of content to experience. However, players can also fast-track their progression using the right seeds, which are basically codes supported by both Minecraft Java and Bedrock Editions.
These can be input during world creation to generate a specific set of terrain features and structure placements. That applies to the 1.20 update, and using seeds for this patch should help players find the new Trails and Tales content fairly quickly.
For Minecraft Java, in particular, there are already plenty of great seeds worth checking out on the new patch's launch day. Let's look at the
Best Seeds for Java Minecraft 1.20
1) Beautiful cherry groves (65434353559200)
The new cherry grove biome is one of the larger draws in Minecraft 1.20. So why not start right inside it? This seed will spawn players in a cherry grove adjacent to a village at (X: 32, Z: 112) and a ruined Nether portal at (X: 24, Z: 88). Even better, gamers can find a large system of caves underneath the new realm itself.
For particularly adventurous Minecraft fans, delving into these subterranean regions will lead to a deep dark biome complete with an ancient city at (X: 56, Y: -51, Z: 8), with additional cities resting nearby at (X: -168, Y: -51, Z: -200) and (X: -328, Y: -51, Z: 136).
2) Camels and deserts (6516547870636750)
Camels may not be the most hyped-up mob added in Minecraft 1.20. However, they can be incredibly useful thanks to their transportation capabilities. Up to two players can ride a saddled camel, making them great to reach places quickly in multiplayer situations.
The Trails and Tales update allows camels to generate within desert villages. This seed has three of them at incredibly short distances from each other and the spawn point. After using this code, players need only venture to (X: 32, Z: 48) or the other nearby villages at (X: -144, Z: 32) or (X: 0, Z: -144), where their new hump-backed friends await.
3) Cherry groves on survival island (-1469030965234589317)
Survival islands are one of the oldest and most beloved challenges in the the MC community. They task players with staying alive for as long as they can on the island they find themselves on. This Java Edition seed provides a large region segmented by a small river with cherry groves available right at spawn.
Fortunately, gamers won't be left to fend for themselves on this particular island. A nice cozy village rests nearby at (X: -544, Z: -736) to help them get started. This region even has an abandoned mineshaft underneath it at (X: -472, Z: -728).
4) Four witch huts (-1412583731547517931)
Although this Minecraft 1.20 Java seed does spawn players adjacent to a cherry grove biome, that isn't necessarily the most appealing feature close to its spawn point. Roughly 1,000 blocks from the spawn, players can find a particularly sizable swamp with four total witch huts incredibly close together.
It's quite rare for structures of this nature to generate so near one another, even in Java Edition 1.20. The first hut can be spotted at (X: 1,384, Z: -984), with the other three resting at (X: 1,400, Z: -1,160), (X: 1,544, Z: -1,160), and (X: 1,560, Z: -1,000).
5) Discover ocean ruins (421109587)
Archeology was one of the headlining features introduced in Minecraft 1.20, and there are plenty of ways to use it. By equipping a brush, players can interact with suspicious sand/gravel blocks to unearth plenty of treasures, including sniffer eggs in warm ocean ruins.
This seed spawns players on an island with a cherry grove biome, but they can find plenty of copper ore underground to help them get ingots to craft a brush. Subsequently, they can head to (X: 8, Z: -248) to find eight small warm ocean ruins that may have some suspicious sand blocks worth excavating.
6) Peaceful spawn village (7599824378187852)
For a comfortable start to Survival Mode or a Creative Mode building excursion, this Minecraft Java seed might be enough. Players spawn not far from a village located at (X: 16, Z: 16) to help them get started. Across from this area and the twisting rivers lie a sizable cherry grove biome on a cliff face as well as a set of dripstone caves.
The spawn locale comes complete not only with these areas but also a few waterfalls and lava flows that may prove to be helpful early on after Minecraft fans craft a few buckets.
7) Tiny cherry biome (2251799825685318)
If Minecraft fans want a few cherry trees to get started in their world but don't want a massive grove to be involved, this seed might meet that demand. In this seed, gamers begin in a village complete with a small sinkhole with even more village buildings underground and a miniature cherry grove biome nearby.
However, the villagers aren't exactly alone. If players venture to (X: 32, Z: -176) they'll find another village housed near a cherry grove biome. Even better, this area has an abandoned mineshaft running underground outside its perimeter at approximately (X: -8, Z: -264).
8) Abandoned village (32000591)
Spawning in a village is certainly not uncommon in this beloved sandbox game, but starting out in a seed in the middle of an abandoned one is another story. If players don't mind clearing out a few hostile mobs and fixing up this homestead, it's certainly theirs for the taking. Moreover, this village has a nice location near a cherry grove.
Even better, players who are feeling adventurous can grab a brush and head to (X: 344, Z: -136) to find a set of trail ruins to slate their thirst for archeology. Additionally, venturing to (X: -496, Z: -688) will yield a populated village surrounded by pleasant cherry groves for hundreds of blocks.
9) Cherry grove, villages, and more (844424996132328)
Sure, this seed features another village placed near a mountain and a cherry grove biome. However, that's far from its only appeal, and spelunkers should get a real kick out of it once they start digging into the cliffs near the spawn to find what rests underground.
A series of abandoned mineshafts lie at (X: 104, Z: -56), (X: -88, Z: 72), and (X: -216, Z: -8). Alongside that, a somewhat more dangerous ancient city rests nearby as well at (X: -312, Y: -51, Z: 56)
10) Desert village near badlands (-1319064447470609949)
In addition to including camels in version 1.20's desert villages, desert biomes also house pyramids and desert wells, both of which can be used to find items via archeology. If players don't mind venturing quite some distance, they can find multiple archeological sites within the biome this seed throws them in.
Players will begin near a badlands cave, and if they hop up out of its mouth, they'll find a desert village straight ahead. However, the true draw of this seed may be its numerous desert pyramids and wells that are begging to be brushed for pottery sherds once players craft a quality brush.
Archeological sites in this Minecraft seed
- Pyramid 1 - (X: 184, Z: 168)
- Pyramid 2 - (X: -424, Z: 136)
- Pyramid 3 - (X: -744, Z: 376)
- Well 1 - (X: 349, Z: 84)
- Well 2 - (X: 434, Z: 299)
- Well 3 - (X: 986, Z: 275)
Although the structures in this seed's immediate vicinity might not yield sniffer eggs, players should be able to find a plethora of pottery sherds to craft several different varieties of decorated pot blocks.
11) Gorgeous village spawn (8344647710)
For a Minecraft seed with a gorgeous view and a solid starting position, fans can look to this entry as a great example. Players begin on an island with a mountain that reaches the in-game height limit as well as two separate villages at (X: 16, Z: 0) and (X: 0, Z: -704). Fans can also spot an ancient city hidden within the mountainside at (X: -200, Y: -51, Z: 88).
12) Trail ruins seed (6859239375584386228)
If Minecraft fans want to get their proverbial hands dirty with some archeology gameplay, they have a fantastic opportunity to do so with this seed. Players will spawn right next to a set of trail ruins and find two additional ones partially buried at (X: -312, Z: 216) and (X: 104, Z: -216).
As an added bonus, players can also find a taiga village at (X: -288, Z: 64) and a pillager outpost at (X: 176, Z: 144).
13) Levitating mountains (-367864316962412329)
Sure, this Minecraft Java seed may not be chock-full of structures right at the spawn, but it does have a particularly interesting landmass at roughly (X: -350, Z: 117). Here, players can find a mountain-like piece of terrain in the approximate shape of a mushroom. Even better, the locale has a village nearby at (X: -448, Z: 144).
In addition to the village, Minecraft fans can also find a ruined portal adjacent to it at (X: -504, Z: 56) for some easy loot.
14) Enchanted golden apple seed (-1845987320)
If players don’t mind making a short trip in this Minecraft Java seed, they can get themselves some spectacular loot. Thanks to recent changes to the game, players can now generate a seed multiple times and still find the same loot. With that in mind, players can venture to (X: -350, Y: 72, Z: 233) to find a ruined portal containing an enchanted golden apple.
Sure, it isn’t the greatest loot chest otherwise, but these rare apples should be a huge help when getting started in this Java seed.
15) Giant lake (3874221579445469197)
For a particularly interesting structure and terrain combination, players can check out this Minecraft Java seed. By heading to (X: -379, Y: 64, Z: 12), players will notice a sizable trail ruin dropped right in the middle of a basin of water surrounded by a forest. Excavating this set of ruins may be tricky with all the water, but the results may be worth it.
If nothing else, players can always break down the ruins and replace them with a nice underwater base.
16) Mushroom island seed (44555160002)
Mushroom islands make for excellent starting points and home base locations in Minecraft, and this Java seed has an incredibly large one. From the spawn point, players can head northeast to roughly (X: 392, Z: -255) to find the massive mushroom island. Even better, players who are looking for a quick path to the End can head to (X: 1412, Z: -460) and dig down to find a stronghold.
17) Outpost in a cherry grove (34075858419687599)
Minecraft 1.20 heralded the arrival of cherry grove biomes, and this Java seed provides multiple biomes surrounding a quiet valley that could make for an excellent starting point. From the spawn, players can jump up to the three nearby cherry groves to build their base or keep it in the valley between them.
Fans should just be careful if they check out the southern cherry grove, as a pillager outpost has sprung up at (X: 32, Z: 256).
18) Bamboo forests (979359992)
If players are tired of smaller survival islands, they may want to give this Minecraft Java seed a try. They’ll spawn atop a massive island composed mostly of jungle and forests with a few beaches and stony shores littered throughout. A small segment of badlands also rest on the southeast corner of the island at roughly (X: 273, Z: 274).
Even better, players can find some warm ocean ruins near the spawn at (X: 40, Z: -264) where they can search for sniffer eggs if they’d like.
19) Village and trail ruins (3396663060346325784)
If players are ready to do some digging, this seed may very well fit their needs. Right from the spawn point, players can find a village nearby at (X: 32, Z: 192) with a few additional structures underground. Before heading into the depths, players can stop for a moment and get some materials and equipment to help keep them safe.
Once they’re ready, players can head to (X: 72, Z: 184) to find a set of trail ruins underground. Furthermore, there is an ancient city buried at (X: 104, Y: -51, Z: 168).
20) Intact shipwreck in a village (3153934843)
For a nice balanced spawn point with some extra loot thrown in, this Minecraft seed might be a great pick. Players drop right in front of a village that has a nice little amenity: an entire intact ship resting on its shores. The accompanying waters and small landmasses can also provide a few building opportunities if needed.
Given the fact that this village generates with its own ship, the builds and designs that players can come up with are virtually endless.
