The clouds in the trees are a nice touch as well. The position is 1147, 167, 708, but the poster is a little new at this.

This gorgeous Java seed is in the prime spot to have a bit of everything. A ring of snowy mountains holds a lake surrounded by trees. Just outside of this vista, there are three villages, a pillager outpost, and plenty of nature to explore. Forest-covered cliffs meet the ocean at the edge. While the finder does not post the coordinates, they say all of this is just southwest of the spawn point, so you won’t have to wander far.

This seed reveals an all-natural water park. Waterfalls pour down from caves into pools below while one side of the mountain is covered in snowy evergreen trees. It looks like a winter wonderland. The coordinates are -10908, 155, 6529, but the original poster advises that you have caves and turned on in 1.18 Bedrock Experimental.

This seed takes you to an enormous hollow mountain riddled with caves. The inside of the mountain is a labyrinth of narrow tunnels and larger caverns. There are little pools and tufts of greenery. However, the main attraction is the open skylight that turns into an aerial view of the mountain. It’s a stunning view as the white mountain stands out against the surrounding green of the forest. The original poster listed the location as 1850 X -50 Z and added the note that this seed has over 4000 block mountain range as well!

The seeds with hidden wonders are some of the best! This seed was difficult to catch in a single photo, but above ground, it looks like a normal meadow. Walking along the terraced landscape, you basically stumble across a steep drop in the ground and plummet into a large cave. But wait, there’s more! The cave is flooded, but a large hole and waterfall indicate there’s more to explore. Dropping into the hole plops you in a massive, flooded dripstone cave! You can swim around and may even encounter a jellyfish. The coordinates are -5883, 112, 5257.

You’ll want to definitely check out the source post for this seed. Four beautiful views from the spawn point show off an archipelago of sorts.

This seed, dubbed “Crater Lake” by the original poster, is exactly what it sounds like. A huge crater, filled with water, sits in the center of a ring of mountains covered in trees. There are tiny islands outside of the ring of mountains and the ocean, so you get the feeling of having your own private lake. Also, there is a bonus lake to enjoy embedded in one of the mountains! It’s a steep drop into a smaller lake. Then you can skim over some snow-capped mountains to discover some cool cave openings. The coordinates are 440, 120, -1500.

In this seed, you can spawn into a very cozy meadow surrounded by a ring of snowy mountains. The meadow is so beautiful the way it’s this patch of green life surrounded by barren snow. There are even flowers growing there! There’s a village too, so it’s basically a unique little place to settle in. The original poster said the village is the spawn point, so no coordinates necessary.

We love the variety in this seed. Two plateaus hanging out in an ocean, but they’re so different from each other. One is a lush jungle island with a river flowing through it. There’s also a lovely little lush cave in this raised island. The neighboring island is a wooded badlands surrounded by underwater corals. It’s an ocean paradise!

Welcome to birch paradise! An island populated with birch trees sits in the center of a peaceful lake just waiting to be explored. In a ring around the water, a birch forest populates the sloped land. It kind of looks like an arena from this angle. Also, the little topiary corner is cute too. The original poster listed the coordinates as -574 ~ 168.

The original post of this seed included a video that had a much better view, but here we have an enormous forested region with a ring of unconnected mountains breaking through. The forest is mostly made up of birch trees, but a large patch or two is another type of tree. The mountains are a variety of sizes, and some of them have a bit of water on them. Based on the video, this disk of mountains and trees appears to be surrounded by water. According the original poster though, there are also around 26 ancient cities nearby. The coordinates are X: 400 and Z: -120.
