Groves generate as mountain slope biomes, similar to [[Minecraft:meadow]]s and [[Minecraft:cherry grove]]s, but at higher altitudes and not as plateaus. They can also generate standalone on smaller peaks, sometimes measuring only a few blocks in size.
Groves usually generate as mountain slope biomes in cold to temperate climates, requiring medium to high humidity. As a result, they are frequently bordered by [[Minecraft:jagged peaks]] and [[Minecraft:frozen peaks]] in higher mountains.  


They can generate in the coldest to medium temperature zones with higher humidity. They often border [[Minecraft:jagged peaks]] and [[Minecraft:frozen peaks]] as mountain biomes and meadows in valleys, and they are replaced by [[Minecraft:snowy slopes]] in lower humidity. Groves commonly border medium forested biomes like [[Minecraft:forest]]s, [[Minecraft:birch forest]]s, [[Minecraft:taiga]]s, [[Minecraft:dark forest]]s, and [[Minecraft:old growth taiga]]s.
Groves often border [[Minecraft:forest]]s, [[Minecraft:taiga]]s, [[Minecraft:meadow]]s, [[Minecraft:birch forest]]s, [[Minecraft:dark forest]]s, and [[Minecraft:old growth taiga]]s as the terrain lowers. In frozen climates, [[Minecraft:snowy taiga]]s frequently border groves.


In the coldest temperature zones, groves extend to entire valleys and hills around mountains, replacing [[Minecraft:snowy taiga]]s and [[Minecraft:taiga]]s, and also bordering [[Minecraft:frozen river]]s and [[Minecraft:frozen ocean]]s with tall cliffs or [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s. Snowy taigas and regular taigas can sometimes generate as thin strips replacing rivers in highland snowy slopes.
Very cold climates allow groves to stretch into flatter terrain and valleys, where they can cover thousands of blocks with thin [[Minecraft:frozen river]]s, taigas, or snowy taigas biomes cutting through the valleys. If the humidity decreases, [[Minecraft:snowy slopes]] often generate instead.


Because groves are mountain biomes, they are almost guaranteed to have [[Minecraft:deep dark]] underneath, and commonly also [[Minecraft:dripstone caves]] or [[Minecraft:lush caves]].
Similar to other mountain biomes, the [[Minecraft:deep dark]] is very common deep underground. At shallower depths, [[Minecraft:dripstone caves]] and [[Minecraft:lush caves]] frequently generate. [[Minecraft:Ice caves]] often generate underground if temperatures are low and weirdness is high.{{upcoming|Fourth Drop 2026}}

Template:For Template:Infobox biome A grove is a snowy forest biome that often generates on the sides of Minecraft:mountains. Similar to the Minecraft:snowy taiga, it is filled with Minecraft:spruce trees but the ground is covered with Minecraft:snow blocks and occasional Minecraft:powder snow patches.

Generation

Groves usually generate as mountain slope biomes in cold to temperate climates, requiring medium to high humidity. As a result, they are frequently bordered by Minecraft:jagged peaks and Minecraft:frozen peaks in higher mountains.

Groves often border Minecraft:forests, Minecraft:taigas, Minecraft:meadows, Minecraft:birch forests, Minecraft:dark forests, and Minecraft:old growth taigas as the terrain lowers. In frozen climates, Minecraft:snowy taigas frequently border groves.

Very cold climates allow groves to stretch into flatter terrain and valleys, where they can cover thousands of blocks with thin Minecraft:frozen rivers, taigas, or snowy taigas biomes cutting through the valleys. If the humidity decreases, Minecraft:snowy slopes often generate instead.

Similar to other mountain biomes, the Minecraft:deep dark is very common deep underground. At shallower depths, Minecraft:dripstone caves and Minecraft:lush caves frequently generate. Minecraft:Ice caves often generate underground if temperatures are low and weirdness is high.Template:Upcoming

Description

A grove creates a forest of spruce Minecraft:trees on the sides of a mountain, reminiscent of a Minecraft:snowy taiga but the surface is covered Minecraft:snow blocks above a Minecraft:dirt ground, with Minecraft:snow layers on top. All spruce trees grow on a single block of dirt replacing snow blocks, with a slightly lower density than in snowy taigas.

Minecraft:Strips of Minecraft:powder snow occasionally replace snow blocks and the dirt below, where trees do not generate. Minecraft:Fallen trees and Minecraft:dying trees do not generate here.

Minecraft:Rabbits, snowy Minecraft:wolves, and snow Minecraft:foxes can spawn in this biome. Like other mountain biomes, emerald ore and Minecraft:infested stone can generate in stone under the ground. Minecraft:Pillager outposts are the only structures that generate here.

With Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals, groves use default environmental settings with a coolish color grading, making the biome appear colder blue. They use cold sunlight, which is slightly brighter at dusk and dawn.
