How to find

Taiga is common in cooler Overworld regions and recognizable by tall spruce trees and ferns. Snowy variants count as separate biomes.

Terrain and features

Podzol and coarse dirt replace grass in patches, while sweet berry bushes slow movement and deal damage. Terrain is generally buildable.

Resources and mobs

Spruce provides a dark building palette, berries serve as early food and fox bait, and wolves can be tamed with bones.

Survival and building

Do not sprint blindly through berry bushes, and control campfires near dense trees. Spruce saplings can grow into giant trees.
