biome list (java edition) Biome List (Java Edition)

In Minecraft, a biome is a region with unique weather, animals and plants, and each biome has a unique Minecraft ID assigned to it. Some biomes are harder to find than others and each biome belongs to one of the three dimensions (Overworld, Nether, or End). You can find specific biomes in the game using the /locate command.

Here is an interactive list of Minecraft IDs for all biomes and their associated dimensions in Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac).
