Minecraft End Gateway Finder

Find the nearest end gateways in your Minecraft world from its seed. Each result is pinned on the End map with exact coordinates — click one to jump there, copy the coordinates, or grab a ready-made /tp command. These are the seed-generated return gateways scattered across the outer islands, not the fixed ring that appears around the central island after dragon fights.

Pair this with the end city finder and you have the whole End routed: fly city to city collecting shulker shells, then hop into the nearest return gateway instead of crossing a thousand blocks of void on half-worn elytra.

How to use the end gateway finder

  1. Enter your seed — type or paste it into the seed box and press Go. Text seeds work too; they convert to numbers exactly like the in-game seed field.
  2. Match your version — pick the version your world was generated in. Structure positions change between versions, so this matters.
  3. Read the results — the nearest end gateways appear in the panel, sorted by distance from the search point, each with exact coordinates.
  4. Jump to a result — click a result to center the map on it, then click the marker to copy its coordinates or a ready-made teleport command. Panned somewhere new? Press Search this area to look around the current view.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find end gateways from my seed?
Enter your world seed and the finder lists the nearest end gateways in the outer End islands with exact coordinates, sorted by distance. Click a result to center the map on it, then click the marker to copy the coordinates or a /tp command.
Which gateways does this finder show?
The return gateways that generate with the terrain across the outer End islands — those depend on your seed. The up-to-20 gateways around the central island are different: one appears per ender dragon defeat, at fixed spots in a 96-block ring, the same for every seed.
How do I go through an end gateway?
The opening is a single block framed in bedrock, so you can't walk in. Throw an ender pearl into the beam, fly in with elytra, or crawl in via a trapdoor. A return gateway teleports you back to the End's spawn platform region — the fast lane home from the outer islands.
Why hunt end gateways?
They're the transit network of the End. When you're out looting end cities for elytra and shulker shells, knowing the nearest return gateway means you're never more than a short flight from a free trip back to the central island — no thousand-block void crossing.
Where do end gateways generate?
Throughout the outer End islands, which start roughly 1,000 blocks from the center beyond a gap of pure void. The finder's search starts wide enough to reach past that gap, so the first results usually sit just beyond the void ring.
Which versions does the end gateway finder support?
The finder supports Java 1.13 and newer (naturally generated return gateways have existed since 1.11, but the finder's worldgen engine models them from 1.13 up). It supports Java Edition only — Bedrock worlds generate differently.
