How to find the pale garden biome in Minecraft

The pale garden biome is easily one of Minecraft’s most terrifying regions. This eerily quiet biome has some horrifying secrets for you to uncover, but you need to know how to find a pale garden before you can start exploring.

If you’re up for a combat challenge or looking for a fresh set of blocks you can use for your next build, the pale garden biome is one of the best spots you can visit. Tracking one down can be rather tough though, so here’s how to find the pale garden biome in Minecraft.

How to find a pale garden in Minecraft

The pale garden biome can only be found by exploring the overworld in Minecraft. It randomly spawns throughout the world, so there’s no way to guarantee you find one naturally. Your best bet for finding one naturally is to travel as far and as much as possible, especially if you’re in an area that’s already generated.

To have any shot at finding one at all, you need to be playing a version that includes The Garden Awakens patch. For Java Edition, you need to be on at least 1.21.4, and for Bedrock, you must be on at least version 1.21.50. All older versions of Minecraft do not include the pale garden biome.

How to use the locate pale garden biome command in Minecraft

If you’re willing to use cheats, you can use the locate command to find a pale garden instantly. The command you can enter into the chat box to find this biome is:

• /locate biome minecraft:pale_garden

Once you have the location, you can either make your way to the biome naturally using coordinates or teleport there instantly by clicking on the location in the chat box. The locate command will always point you toward the closest instance of the spot you’re looking for, so if the first pale garden you find is lackluster, you need to travel very far away before using the command again to search for a new one.

What is the pale garden biome in Minecraft?

In the daytime, the pale garden is just a regular peaceful, serene, and quiet forest. As soon as night falls, though, this biome becomes incredibly eerie and overrun with terrifying monsters including the deadly Creaking.

The Creaking is the main feature in the pale garden biome, and it’s a downright nightmare to deal with. This hostile mob is tree-like and matches the colors of the pale oak trees in this area perfectly, which makes it a very tough foe to spot.

This mob cannot be attacked directly and instead is tied to a special biome block called the Creaking heart. If you want to eliminate this foe, you have to find and destroy the Creaking heart. This enemy also doesn’t move when you look right at it, but very swiftly runs to attack you the second you look away from its glowing gold eyes. The Creaking isn’t quite as imposing as the Warden in the deep dark biome, but it’s certainly one of Minecraft’s toughest enemies.
