Birch forest biomes are slightly rarer than regular [[Minecraft:forest]] biomes. They generate in medium temperature, between regular forests and [[Minecraft:dark forest]]s in terms of humidity.

Birch forest biomes are somewhat rarer than regular [[Minecraft:forest]] biomes. They generate at medium temperatures and moderately high humidities. Birch forests commonly border regular [[Minecraft:Forest|forests]], [[Minecraft:Dark Forest|dark forests]], [[Minecraft:Meadow|meadows]], [[Minecraft:Taiga|taigas]], [[Minecraft:Jungle|jungles]], [[Minecraft:Ocean|oceans]], and [[Minecraft:mountains]]. Regular birch forests frequently border [[Minecraft:old growth birch forest]]s, often separated by rivers.


Regular birch forests are most commonly separated from [[Minecraft:old growth birch forest]]s by rivers. [[Minecraft:Lush cave]]s may generate under birch forests because of its slightly high humidity, unless the birch forest is far from the ocean.

Template:Infobox biome

A birch forest is a lush Minecraft:biome filled with Minecraft:birch trees and Minecraft:wildflowers that usually generates near other woodland biomes.

Generation

Birch forest biomes are somewhat rarer than regular Minecraft:forest biomes. They generate at medium temperatures and moderately high humidities. Birch forests commonly border regular forests, dark forests, meadows, taigas, jungles, oceans, and Minecraft:mountains. Regular birch forests frequently border Minecraft:old growth birch forests, often separated by rivers.

Minecraft:Lush caves may generate under a birch forest because of its relatively high humidity. Minecraft:Dripstone caves are common inland. Minecraft:Sulfur caves and the Minecraft:deep dark sometimes generate underground.

Description

Birch forests feature Minecraft:birch trees across the landscape that generate as densely as trees in regular forests. Unlike regular forest biomes, Minecraft:oak trees and Minecraft:wolves do not spawn here.

Between the birches, scattered Minecraft:bushes, Minecraft:rose bushes, Minecraft:lilacs, Minecraft:peonies, and Minecraft:lilies of the valley can be found, while Minecraft:wildflowers commonly cover the ground in patches. Minecraft:Bee nests housing 2–3 bees spawn on 0.2%Template:Only or 0.035%Template:Only of birches.

Minecraft:Abandoned camps sometimes generate in birch forests.
