Speedrun Seeds
Village and ruined portal within 300 blocks, stronghold within 1,200, fortress within 300 Nether blocks.
A fast run needs four things close together: a village for beds and food, a ruined portal for a quick Nether entry, a fortress for blaze rods, and a stronghold not too far away.
Every seed here has a village and a ruined portal within 300 blocks of spawn, a Nether fortress within 300 Nether blocks of the spawn's portal spot, and a stronghold within 1,200 blocks.

First things to do
- Light the ruined portal near spawn rather than building your own, if it has enough obsidian.
- The fortress distance is measured from spawn ÷ 8 in the Nether, which is where a portal built at spawn leads.
- Practise the seed a few times; knowing the route is half the time.
How these seeds were found
We ran our seed finder over random seeds with this exact quick pick, using the same world generator as the seed map, and kept the matches with the highest seed score. Every coordinate on this page comes from that check, for 26.3. Older or newer versions can place things differently, so check a seed on the map for your version. Last updated 2026-11-02.
Questions
Are these seeds allowed for speedrun leaderboards?
Set-seed categories allow chosen seeds; random-seed categories do not. Check the rules of the category you run.
Is the ruined portal complete?
Ruined portals are always broken. Most need a few obsidian blocks, which a lava bucket and water can make.
