How do find snowy taiga biomes?

Solution 1:

Biomes are generated randomly. The short answer is to keep walking, and you will eventually find one.

There are a few things you can do to improve your odds though:

• Best way: Use a seed. Just find a seed that starts you off in or near a taiga biome.

• Next best way: map your current seed. You can map your seed with a mapping program like Amidst. This will allow you to easily find where the taiga biomes are. You can output your seed by hittng t and entering /seed.

• Least cheaty way: Look for neighbouring biomes. Recently, biomes can only border other similar biomes. A desert cannot be next to a taiga biome for example. If you head towards 'colder' biomes in your exploration, you will be more likely to find a taiga than if you explore near deserts.

Solution 2:

The only 100% way to make sure you always find a cold taiga biome is if you get a seed that spawns you in that biome, otherwise biomes are generated randomly.

You just need to roll your mouse over each biome to find the one you are looking for.
