Minecraft Snowy Slopes Finder
Highlight every Snowy Slopes patch on your Minecraft seed — Java 26.2 & Bedrock 1.26.40, any seed, free, no sign-up.
Quick answer: Snowy Slopes are the snow-blanketed flanks of Minecraft's mountains, riddled with hidden powder snow traps and home to goats, snowy rabbits and polar bears. This finder highlights every Snowy Slopes patch on your seed, free, Java & Bedrock.
Where do Snowy Slopes generate?
Snowy Slopes generate on the Overworld surface across the flanks and upper reaches of cold, low-humidity mountains. The ground is stone buried under layers of snow blocks, with hidden patches of powder snow that blend into the surface and swallow any player who steps in without leather boots. They usually border jagged peaks and frozen peaks higher up, with meadows and cherry groves in the valleys below.
How do I find Snowy Slopes on my seed?
Enter your seed and the map highlights every Snowy Slopes patch - click any highlighted patch to read its coordinates. Bring a bucket to scoop up powder snow, pack leather boots so you can walk on it safely, and watch the terrain for the tell-tale flat white patches.
Why look for Snowy Slopes?
Snowy Slopes are the main source of powder snow, which you collect with a bucket to build freeze traps or soft landings, and one of the few biomes where goats spawn. It is also the only mountain biome where igloos generate, hides emerald ore and infested stone underground, and is home to snowy rabbits and polar bears. Stray skeletons replace ordinary skeletons here after dark, so come prepared for both the cold and the danger.
Does the Snowy Slopes finder work on Bedrock?
Yes - both editions, Minecraft 26.2 on Java and 1.26.40 on Bedrock. Snowy Slopes were added in the 1.18 Caves & Cliffs update on both editions. It runs the same world-generation maths Minecraft uses, so every patch on your seed is highlighted, free and with no sign-up.
