Quick answer: Old Growth Pine Taiga is the classic mega taiga: towering spruce giants with bare lower trunks rising from a floor of podzol, scattered with mossy cobblestone boulders and sweet berry bushes. This finder highlights every Old Growth Pine Taiga on your seed, free, Java & Bedrock.
Where does Old Growth Pine Taiga generate?
Old Growth Pine Taiga generates on the Overworld surface in cool, often hilly country, usually embedded among ordinary taiga, forest and mountain biomes. Huge two-by-two spruce trees with long bare trunks tower over a carpet of podzol and coarse dirt, broken up by ferns, sweet berry bushes and the odd mossy boulder. It tends to form sizeable blocks of forest rather than thin strips.
How do I find Old Growth Pine Taiga on my seed?
Enter your seed and the finder floods every Old Growth Pine Taiga with full colour while dimming and outlining everything else, so even a remote stand of giant spruce stands out. Set Java or Bedrock, pan and zoom across the map, and click any highlighted patch to read its coordinates. Jot the X/Z down for your trek, or keep looking for the closest patch to spawn.
What makes Old Growth Pine Taiga special?
Old Growth Pine Taiga is prized as the home of podzol and the game's tallest spruce trees, making it a destination for builders and resource-gatherers alike. The podzol floor can be lifted with a silk-touch tool for decorative gardens, the scattered boulders are an easy source of mossy cobblestone, and the giant trunks yield huge hauls of spruce logs, all while wolves and berry-loving foxes wander between the trees. Longtime players still call it Giant Tree Taiga or Mega Taiga, the names it carried before the 1.18 update renamed it.
Does the Old Growth Pine Taiga finder work on Bedrock?
Yes — both editions, Minecraft 26.2 on Java and 1.26.30 on Bedrock, are supported in full. Because it runs the same world-generation maths Minecraft uses, each highlighted patch of giant spruce lines up with your real world. It costs nothing, asks for no account, and accepts any seed.
