Top 20 Best 1.20.2 Seeds for Minecraft

Good Minecraft seeds are few and far between, and I consider finding proper seeds to be an art form. Spending countless hours scouring the internet searching for perfect, rare, and quality seeds with a bunch of content, rare biome combinations, or strange anomalies is hard, but I've done the work and developed a list of the top 20 1.20.2 seeds for you below.

20 - Multi-City Mountains

Seed: -1373118391398881413

Ancient Cities run amok beneath the mountains in this seed. Bedrock players will find four hidden within the mountains while Java players will have a whopping seven Ancient Cities to explore. Additionally, all players will have a Pillager Outpost on top of one of the mountains.

Windswept biomes are some of the prettiest in Minecraft. This island is 50% Windswept Savanna, turning it into a sculptural art piece. Half of the island is flooded and shaped in naturally-forming arches. If you're looking for a beautiful 1.20 island adventure, look no further than this seed.

18 - Badlands Jungle Temple

Seed: -2896033928072352923

Rolling Jungle Hills meet tall Badlands mountains in this world. Bedrock players will have a Jungle Temple on the edge of the Badlands to mark the transition between these two biomes. In contrast, Java players will only have the gradient transition between the dirt blocks of each biome. Regardless of which version you play, this seed is truly a wondrous sight to behold.

17 - Deep Dark Mineshaft

Seed: -5915290835865497770

This mineshaft dangles perilously over the Deep Dark and a lava lake. It's not far from the entrance of the cavern, making it easy for players to slip in and out of the mineshaft. Multiple waterfalls in the area can be ridden to gather Skulk from the cavern floor. If you're a huge fan of mineshafts, the Deep Dark, and Cherry Groves, you won't want to miss this one.

16 - Coastal Riches

Seed: 8386961334623146620

This coast is full of riches for Bedrock players. They will first come across a set of Trail Ruins near a chest of buried treasure, then a Jungle Temple. Heading along the coast in the opposite direction will take them to a Stony Shores biome filled with precious ores. Java players will not have the same luck. Instead, they'll need to take to the seas to find rare resources.

15 - Jungle Badlands Mountain Border

Seed: 8360836629895625931

Players can explore several types of special biomes in this world. The starting Jungle borders a big Wooded Badlands biome. Two Stony Mountains serve as guards to this border. The first is much larger and transitions from Jungle to Savanna to Badlands biomes while the second is much slimmer and consists mostly of a Stony Peaks biome. Both mountains contain lots of ores for players to harvest as they enter this new world.

Seed: -6552405879007654686

This Savanna Village has been slowly falling into disarray over the years. The path is overgrown in places, buildings have grown old, and most recently, a cave has opened up beneath the village. Repair the village by rebuilding homes, fixing the paths, and patching over the hole leading to the cave.

13 - Mineshaft Ravine

Mineshafts may be a basic structure in Minecraft, but that doesn't make them any less enjoyable. The ravine in this Desert contains two separate mineshafts to explore. The first is a Dark Oak mineshaft closer to the surface. The second is an oak mineshaft found deeper inside the cave.

This Minecraft world begins in a lush Mangrove Swamp. Players exploring the Mangrove Swamp will find a circular patch of Jungle biome at its center. Java players will find a Jungle Temple hidden within this center. Bedrock players will come across a Desert Temple in the nearby Desert instead.

Seed: -2127636300155290382

This seed begins in a Desert next to the entrance to a large Lush Cave. Java players will find a Desert Village right next to it while Bedrock players will have to walk a bit further. If you're looking to combine the golden sands of a desert with the beautiful colors of a Lush Cave, this seed is all you need. All players can use the lava pool outside the cave to craft a quick Nether Portal as well.

Armadillos get the best view in this cozy Badlands seed. Spawning directly into the Badlands gives players early access to the new Armadillo mob. Large Stony Shores biomes cover the edge of the cliffs next to the Coral Reef, providing players with abundant ores. It's a vibrant seed perfect for gathering precious materials and building a luxurious survival base.

If Sandworms were real in Minecraft, this cave would be created by them! A village of desert dwellers has made their home next to it. They gather the materials from the cave to sustain their livelihoods. Unfortunately, the lake in the cave has almost completely dried up. You'll need to either refill it or create a new water source to survive.

As far as beautiful seeds go, this one speaks for itself. Climbing on top of the cliff you spawn on reveals a gorgeous Lush Cave inside of the opposing cliff. Java Players will have a jaw-dropping Desert Village with a shipwreck. A small entrance at the bottom of the cliffs leads to a ginormous chamber containing the rest of the Lush Cave and a Deep Dark biome.

Seed: 6993243736976503305

Towering above even the Windswept Hills next to it, this is one of the biggest Pillager Outposts I've ever seen. Its height allows it to view the Plains Village beneath it. Unfortunately, its height prevents the Pillagers from actually plundering the village! It's like the Minecraft equivalent of Rapunzel's tower, with angry and armed Pillagers instead of the princess.

Seed: 3887448163869726866

This Snowy Village is beginning to become overrun by the nearby icy biomes. The bell in the town center has been replaced by a spike of ice, with the bell instead sitting on a small ice block. Part of the village extends into the Frozen Ocean to its left. For those looking for a fight, a Pillager Outpost can be seen in the distance.

Seed: 8101958273703294019

This island was originally a peninsula that became detached from the main continent. The island itself has spruce trees, stony hills, and an icy mountain. Towering stony and spruce islands fill the nearby seas, making the area a treasure trove for ore and wood collection. All players will have the opportunity to uncover mineshafts beneath the mountain. Bedrock players have the chance to find an Ancient City deep below its surface.

Two of the homes in this Desert Village have merged with the adjacent Desert Temple to form one stunning piece of architecture. To enter the temple itself, you'll need to pass through the villager's home at its front. The staircase of the tower is blocked by the temple's walls, but that can easily be entered by climbing the temple and breaking into the tower. You'll want to do so to get the treasure from both the tower and the temple itself.

Seed: 4405867304512727636

This 1.20.2 seed has a much smaller Cherry Grove than others on our list. Its uniqueness comes from its placement near a large cavern, a Snowy Plains biome, and even a mini Ice Spikes biome. Java players have the bonus of a Plains Village being located within the grove. Two of their houses and an animal pen have been constructed within the cavern itself. There is also a lava pool nearby, which is helpful for players who want to make a Nether Portal using the nontraditional method.

Rising from the river, this Woodland Mansion stands over the woods and ruined portals around it. Combine the loot from the Mansion with the ruined portals to gear up and quickly take on the Nether. Bedrock players will not have the Mansion, instead getting an Ancient City and several pieces of buried treasure along the coastline by Spawn.

Seed: -7467799240263402918

Adventure and Survival players will love this upgraded island survival map. The island itself has sloping hills on one side, sheer cliffs on the other, and a mountain in the center. Java players will be able to find several shipwrecks and a cluster of ocean ruins nearby. In contrast, Bedrock players will need to resort to digging up the island's beaches for treasure.
