About these 1.16 seeds

A forest, birch forest, dark forest, or flower forest sample within 96 blocks of estimated spawn is required for every seed in this category. Lists are computed separately for the version printed on each card.

1.16 (the Nether Update) is the classic modded Minecraft version — an enormous number of packs still pin 1.16.5. It's also the version that added ruined portals to the overworld. This is old-style worldgen: the pre-1.18 terrain with world height 0–255, so seeds from newer lists don't transfer. Every seed below was verified on 1.16.2 – 1.16.5 generation itself.

Verified for Java Edition 1.16.2 – 1.16.5 (Nether Update) — 1.16.5 is the classic modpack version these lists are for.

For the current Java 26.3 release, see the main forest seeds — or the same list for 26.3 · 1.21.4 · 1.20 · 1.19 · 1.18. All 1.16 lists live under best 1.16 seeds.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the main forest seeds page?
These seeds are computed for Java 1.16. The main forest seeds list targets Java 26.3. Match the version on the card; older versions can generate different biomes and structure positions.
Which releases do these seeds work on?
Verified on 1.16.2 – 1.16.5, which covers 1.16.5 modpacks. Don't use them on 1.17 or newer — the 1.18 terrain overhaul (and 1.17's transition) means the same seed generates a different world there.
Do these seeds work on Bedrock Edition?
No — Java and Bedrock generate different worlds from the same seed. These lists are Java Edition only.
