The best Minecraft seeds for 1.21.9 October 2025

What are the best Minecraft seeds? If you thought Minecraft generation was random, think again. Well, technically it is, but that RNG is saved under a Minecraft seed, which can then be replicated time and time again. If you or your friends have found an incredible seed, you can restart it or share it as much as you want.

With the Minecraft seeds we've shared below, you can find Minecraft villages at spawn and easy-access strongholds for speedrunning, beautiful landscapes for building, or rare structures for looting in the sandbox game. Given the infinite nature of Minecraft seeds, we've scoured the internet and tested our own to find the coolest and most demanded seeds.

Here are the best Minecraft seeds for 1.21.9, October 2025:

Tiny Ocean

Seed: -1996523481016217001
Important coordinates:

We found this cool Minecraft Tiny Ocean seed over on Reddit, with thanks to TahtaBalta for sharing their find. What sets this seed apart from the best is its very specific location, approximately 2,000 blocks south of spawn. Here, you'll find a small, round ocean biome, complete with an underwater shipwreck.

There's the potential for some seriously amazing builds here. As the Reddit comments suggest, perhaps a fishing village around the edge or an abandoned town, lost to time and encroached upon by Mother Nature. We're sure the options are endless.

The Question Mark

Seed: -39006482427340374
Important coordinates:

This seed isn't going to help you with survival, getting to The End, or speedrunning, but it's another one of those really cool Minecraft sights, and it's worth seeing for yourself. This is a naturally generated question mark dug into the sand. What does this Minecraft seed want to know?

Whether you have the answers or not, this is sadly a difficult sight to see in survival Minecraft, being over 10,000 blocks from spawn. You can always play in Creative and use Minecraft commands to teleport to the location shown above. If you're dedicated, you can still find this site in Survival, it might just take some time and commitment.

Unfortunately, we don't know who originally found this Minecraft seed. If you do, feel free to join the PCGN community Discord and let us know!

Ancient City Spawn

Seed: 1606377695512438131
Important coordinates:

We don't mean to alarm you, but we might have a new contender for the best Minecraft seed we've ever seen. Redditor Frangrant_Result was the lucky one who stumbled upon this remarkable seed that spawns you in an Ancient City.

If you weren't aware, there's a chance you can spawn close to bedrock if there's nothing but air above you, and thus the first solid ground at those coordinates is on a low y-level. That's precisely what happens here as you spawn in on y-level -49 with natural light pouring down to illuminate the Ancient City (and diamonds) around you. Just don't forget to go quietly if you would rather not awaken the deadly Minecraft Warden.

Lush Cave Fissure

Seed: 5458610690093579921
Important coordinates:

You spawn into an old-growth spruce taiga, with some snowy taiga above a fissure in the ground. Not quite a ravine, these fissures were new to the Caves and Cliffs update and are narrow cracks in the ground. This leads down into a glorious cave.

This in itself isn't too unusual, but the reason we love this seed is the shape and layout of the fissure, which, we think, would make the perfect base location. We already love a ravine base, and this would be a similar idea, just with more ledges and natural structures to work from. Check out our Minecraft house ideas guide for more on turning a crack in the ground into a home.

Giant Cheese Cave

Seed: -5172090044501194762
Important coordinates:

We've taken a look at this seed found by Redditor Pablo, and it's quite something. Since the Caves and Cliffs update, we've seen some pretty big cheese caves, but this might just be the biggest yet.

Just off spawn, this is the perfect cave for those of us who get a bit too scared in those dark caves, as you can make your way down to diamond with daylight still streaming in. Okay, of course, it's still pretty dark at the bottom, but it's a lot easier to roam around this cave than normal, and it's much easier to find your way back out of it.

Pale Garden Nether Portal

Seed: -3930782522362688416
Important coordinates:

The Pale Garden is a new biome that arrived with the Winter drop in December 2024. The update added not only this creepy, dynamic new biome but also a new mob to boot. The Pale Garden biome is fairly rare and usually small, but this seed features a decent-sized Pale Garden, plus it's combined with one of our other favorite biomes in beautiful surroundings.

Through the Dark Forest just to the southwest of spawn, you'll soon stumble across a ruined Nether portal that marks the border between the forest and the Pale Garden. This in itself is pretty useful; even if you don't use it to later enter the Nether, there's an almost full set of enchanted golden armor in there, which is great for a starter set. There's also a village to the west of spawn, so you could take a detour through there for an even better survival head start.

Temple Lake

Seed: -2332803749585407299
Important coordinates:

We have to thank Reddit user imbadatmakinguserna for finding this one. First, there's that jungle lake with a little island that would make a great base location. Then there's the jungle temple just 200 blocks northwest of the lake. Back at spawn, there's a desert temple and village in one. Then, if that wasn't enough, head into that crevice in the village, and you'll find a huge, stunning, lush cave that we'll leave you to discover.

River Ring

Seed: -6018321323546593994
Important coordinates:

This stunning river ring seed has been shared around the Minecraft community a fair amount, and we unfortunately don't know who originally discovered it, but it's a truly remarkable location for your next build. It's close to spawn, and it's available on both Java and Bedrock editions.

Ultimate Desert Seed

Seed: 486362209
Important coordinates:

We had a couple of seeds on this list for desert villages and pyramids previously, but we've replaced them with the ultimate desert seed. Within 300 blocks from spawn, there are four desert villages and two desert pyramids to boot. To give you an idea of how close everything is, you can see villages 1 and 2 and desert temple 1 in the image above.

There are also mineshafts under the surface here, so there's plenty of great loot to be found within just a few chunks of launching the world. Desert pyramids are a great way to get started with Minecraft archeology as well, so make sure you craft a Minecraft brush as soon as you can.

Cliffside Village

Seed: 6391130274229160289
Important coordinates:

This may not look all that spectacular, but it's all about the vision, especially if you're into terraforming the land. Look at this seed, found by mariiecx on Reddit. Now imagine that cliffside being sculpted into a ragged, stony, zig-zagged staircase. Maybe add a small sandy beach? Then rework the buildings. We'd also make that midway village meeting area the focal point of your new village home.

Badlands Lake

Seed: 7598363429859286340
Important coordinates: 

Sure, there are plenty of stunning icy views and expansive cherry groves you can go after for a beautiful base location, but we're not sure we've seen a cooler place for building in Minecraft than this Badlands lake shared by Scared_Fruit_8452 on Reddit. The flat land around the lake, against a background of steep terracotta cliffs, makes for the perfect building canvas, while the aesthetic of the location itself is entirely different from anything we've seen before.

Cherry Grove Lake

Seed: 69420018030897796
Bedrock Seed: -2032795982907864146
Important coordinates:

Stofix on YouTube found a great seed for Cherry Grove lovers, as this huge lake village is located just below a large cherry blossom biome. Even better is that YourLocalKnight on Reddit has found the Bedrock equivalent, too, so you can enjoy a cherry grove lake village seed on whichever platform you play.

Underground Village

Seed: 712252439217434
Version: 1.19.2
Important coordinates:

While looking for the above seed, we also came across another incredible discovery by Stofix. This remarkable find features a village at the bottom of a large cave, at y-level -52, which is incredibly rare, and is a great place to build a dangerous but seriously cool (or hot) base. Unfortunately, this was fixed after 1.19.2, and the village instead spawns floating in the ocean (which is still pretty cool), so you must run this in 1.19.2 to see what we've shown in the image above.

Pillagers and Villagers

Seed: 8110137054462309706
Important coordinates:

If you want a challenge as soon as you spawn in, this seed is a good way to test your mettle. Head east from spawn to find a handy savanna village to get started and find some loot before turning your attention south, where you can find a pillager outpost and ruined portal. Those pillagers will be on you almost as soon as you spawn in.

What makes this seed even better is that you can get to know the recent armadillo mob addition in the spawn savanna biome, and there are some incredibly interesting cave entrances all around this dangerous area. There are also loads of surface ore nearby and plenty of passive mob spawns to keep you fed.

Ancient Stronghold

Seed: 2814259876962170059
Important coordinates:

We have another seed a little further down in which a Stronghold intersects with an Ancient City, but this one is like the hardcore version. This Stronghold portal room has generated right in the middle of an Ancient City structure, so if you want to get to the End, you're going to have to contend with the terrifying threat of the Warden first.

If you want to play this world in a normal, vanilla, survival style, we recommend heading South from spawn and playing as normal that way for a while, as that will just get you a bit closer to this final destination. For a few more hints, there are some important coordinates above. Thanks to KoPlrLol on Reddit for finding this one.

Trial Chamber

Seed: -7417157268905316998
Version: 1.21
Important coordinates:

We love an easy Minecraft survival seed. That's why we love this seed. A village is always the perfect place to find early on so that you can set a spawn point, sleep through the night, and hide from terrifying mobs. This plains village is just a short walk southeast from spawn. What we also love about this seed is the village's proximity to some important structures and the variety of biomes around you.

There is a ruined portal in the village, so you have easy and safe access to the Nether. If the worst happens, you know you won't spawn too far from your home and portal. As one last thought, we personally love that ravine in the village too, perfect for building a unique ravine base.

Frozen River Village

Seed: 9009245503860775875
Version: 1.21
Important Coordinates:

We love a snowy taiga village; it's our favorite place to set up an early game home in Minecraft, but they're not always that easy to find, and we often find ourselves settling for a savanna or plains village. Well, this seed changes that.

This cute, large, snowy taiga village is nestled in a normal taiga biome but gathers a light dusting of snow thanks to being perched on a frozen river. It might not be the safest place to build houses, but it looks gorgeous and allows for a bit of ice skating in your spare time, too.

Underground Lava Temple

Seed: 2482490754905255652
Version: 1.18+
Important coordinates:

Yep, that's a desert temple floating in lava in a lush cave. What's more, this abomination is directly beneath you at spawn. Thanks to DylanDC14 on YouTube for finding this one. They found it back in 2022, but we've checked it in Java edition in 1.21 and can confirm it's still as awesome.

There are lush caves for miles around, mineshafts and amethyst geodes aplenty, and the nearest Trial Chamber is only 300 blocks away. You have to go a little further to your closest village, but it's still not too bad.

Ancient Trial Stronghold

Seed: 1669984371247603308
Version: 1.21+
Important Coordinates:

This amazing seed puts the three rarest and most valuable overworld structures together in one place: an Ancient City, a Trial Chamber, and even a Stronghold. What you can't see is the Stronghold just 300 blocks behind you to the northwest. Once you've kitted yourself out in your best armor and are ready to face the Ender Dragon, you can kill two birds with one stone, or explore three structures in one adventure.

Armor Trims

Seed: -3700836276160199646
Important coordinates:

Minecraft armor trims arrived with the Minecraft 1.20 update and allow you to flex an armor fit as you battle monsters and mine precious ores. Getting these armor trims, or the smithing templates used to forge your armor, is no easy task. Most are looted from well-protected chests in dangerous locations. Thanks to shady_bookworm on Reddit for finding this one.

If you don't want to stray too far from your base, or even spawn, for some of the most hard-to-find smithing templates, then this seed makes things easy and has a lot more to offer, too. Just a short walk to the southwest, you find an Outpost on an island, the significance of the island being that it makes this outpost much safer to be near, as pillagers struggle to cross water.

Broken Cove

Seed: 11297487
Important coordinates:

In perhaps the most beautiful landscape we've seen in Minecraft in our ten-plus years of playing, this majestic broken cove features floating pieces of land, multiple waterfalls, and even a ruined portal floating in the center of the water below.

This location gives us so many ideas for stunning builds we don't know where to start, but the first step is loading our next new world here. What makes this even better is that you don't have to go far to find it, as this cove is situated right at spawn, and we have sevenhundredmiles on Reddit to thank for finding this treasure.

Rare Swamp Village

Seed: -2295595817529477063
Important coordinates:

In case you're unaware, swamp and jungle villages don't spawn naturally in Minecraft, but they do have unique villager trades. This might seem unfair, but these villagers can be forced to spawn as long as they are 'born' in these biomes, for example, via a villager farm. This usually means you either have to be lucky enough to find your 'parent' villagers close to one of these biomes, or transport them via Nether portal, boat, minecart, or a combination of all three. Boring.

In this rare seed, however, a normal taiga village just happens to generate at the edge of the biome, overlapping with a swamp. Not only does this make it easy to create a villager farm in the swamp, but it also means swamp villagers, with a unique look, may even spawn naturally, making this a very handy seed. Thanks to Nt0splat on Reddit for finding it.

Skull Island

Seed: 1040934860
Important coordinates:

This incredibly cool find was discovered by DPS3 on Reddit features a large island that looks like a skull, complete with a cute little opening for a nose. What makes this even better is that the skull island houses a gorgeous Minecraft lush cave, which looks beautiful and is home to some rare loot.

Still not enough to sell it to you? Well, how about the fact that you spawn directly on top of this cool seed into a massive desert village? Oh, and there's a mineshaft below ground. You can get just about everything you need for an easy start to your survival adventure right here on skull island.

Easy Nether

Seed: -4517475607999363428
Important coordinates:

Don't take us too seriously when we say "easy"; nothing in the Nether is ever easy, but this seed certainly sets you up for success. When launching into this world, found by PainterAccording on Reddit, you spawn on a small island, which itself is home to some vital resources like coal, iron, and gravel.

Place a Nether Portal on this island, and you'll find yourself right inside (or close to) a Nether Fortress. That's not all, as there's also a Bastion Remnant located just 100 blocks to the North. Just make sure you're kitted out with gold, armor, and other essentials before you try to venture into the underworld.

Shipwreck Survival

Seed: -8065848147699287859
Important coordinates:

While finding shipwrecks is one of the best ways of gathering valuable resources early on, there's still a significant challenge involved in being stranded on a shipwreck in a completely open ocean, and that's precisely what this seed offers. Thanks to Jmims1983 on Reddit for finding this challenging survival Minecraft seed on 1.20, in which you really do spawn on a shipwreck mast, with no land in sight.

Carefully go underwater to loot the shipwreck's chests for all you can get, which does, thankfully, include some iron; grab some of its wood to make a boat, and see how far you can make it.

Perfect Building

Seed: -3899835130120818196
Important coordinates:

For a seed that offers building locations and survivability right at spawn, we've got you covered. This perfect seed spawns you right near a plains village, where you can pick up plenty of materials to get you started. However, the real draw of this seed is the large surrounding plains, which offer perfect plateaus for building on.

This plains biome is surrounded by tiny cherry grove, forest, and even jungle biomes as well, so you can gather most of the wood types without straying too far from your home base.

Mega Ancient City

Seed: 111111111111111111
Important coordinates:

We're calling this the Mega Ancient City, but do let it be known that there is some space between some of them, so you might think it a little misleading. That said, there's still no denying that 26 Ancient Cities within 5,000 blocks is spectacular, especially considering how big each individual structure is.

What makes this seed even better is that these underground structures start quite close to spawn, and there's a picturesque snowy village on your way to the first. Stop here, make yourself at home, and prepare for your adventure, then head underground towards -210, -700 to start your ancient city exploration. Head west, and the majority of the cities are on a straight line.

Speedrun

Seed: 7499203634667178692
Important coordinates:

If you want to test your mettle as a speedrunner, this is the random seed used by current record holder Zylenox, who we've also listed as one of our favorite Minecraft YouTubers for their speedrun record. It might not appear the best with those Stronghold co-ords above, but we'd highly recommend taking a look at Zylenoz's speedrun raw recording to see how it's done by the very best and give it a practice in the seed itself.

Beautiful Snowy

Seed: 7050622155736149866
Important coordinates:

This seed was originally found by Redditor Hanazeri in 1.19, and what makes this even better after 1.20 is the addition of a Cherry Grove biome right next to one of the icy mountains. The vantage point above can be found at coordinates x=93, z=2,655, while the snowy mountain and cherry blossom combo can be found a short walk along the x-axis to x=-694, z=2,846.

There's no prettier color combo than pink and white, right? So grab a few saplings and pink petals from the Cherry Grove, head back to the gorgeous building plot above, and turn that circular meadow into a snowy pink wonderland.

Zombie Villager

Seed: 8014621782944328921
Important coordinates:

If you're someone who worries about having somewhere to rest your head on your first Minecraft night, and you like to find rare structures, then look no further than this Minecraft seed with an igloo at spawn. With a bed, a chest, some food, and even a villager to trade with, you're off to a good start with this seed before you've really even started.

From here, we recommend heading southwest, either underground or above ground, but you'll find a mineshaft ripe for looting if you travel underground. There's a shipwreck just under the water's surface, full of other valuable gear, including a treasure map and armor-smithing templates.

Easy Diamonds

Seed: 3057310577815726585
Important coordinates:

Digging for diamonds can be a frustrating task, but not if you know the exact location of a 21-piece diamond vein, as spotted by Redditor u/PurelyPog. Although it's technically a diamond vein of 18 blocks plus a second one of three blocks, either way you look at it, it's massive.

To find it, start by walking towards the northeast, where you'll find a Plains village. Stand on block x=90, z=-250, then dig straight down until you enter a cave at y=-24. Watch out for the monsters! Once you get rid of them, dig a bit further down (y=-31) to find the 18-piece diamond vein. The second one is a few blocks lower. As a bonus, you'll find plenty of other ore types in this cave area..

Infinite Mineshaft

Seed: 107038380838084
Important coordinates:

Create a new world in version 1.20 and head underground at spawn or anywhere on the z-axis 8.0, and you'll find one long mineshaft that spans the world's entire x-axis. Right near spawn, it even opens into a lush cave, lighting the path ahead with glow berries. Thanks to Cynix747 for sharing this incredible find on Reddit. Our only advice: try not to get lost.

Beautiful Frozen Lake

Seed: 5488656216511509290
Important coordinates:

We might be nearing the end of winter in the Northern Hemisphere, but even if you're not looking for a Minecraft Christmas guide right now, this winter wonderland seed is still beautiful for any time of year, surrounding you with ice and snow as far as the eye can see.

Load into a 1.19 world or newer, head up the mountain right next to you on spawn, and you can descend into a dripstone cave or build a festive town or icy-cool castle on the gorgeous frozen lake above. Plenty of rare structures near spawn, including a Pillager Outpost at -192, 117, also help you get essential loot in the early days.

Woodland Mansion Spawn

Seed: 844424960210770
Important coordinates:

Why search for a Woodland Mansion if you can spawn on top of one? This Minecraft Woodland Mansion seed, found by Redditor Demonitized_Money, does exactly that. Moreover, the mansion is situated right in the middle of a river, with a large nearby cave area and easy access to the ocean. Just be careful when climbing down from the rooftop; the west side of the building offers the safest way to descend.

Witch Mansion

Seed: -9215772017318341931
Important coordinates:

Woodland Mansion

504, 456

Witch Hut 1
