Minecraft End Portal Finder
Calculate the approximate location of the End Portal in a Minecraft stronghold. Find the portal room based on stronghold coordinates.
How to Use This Calculator
- Locate a stronghold using Eyes of Ender.
- Enter the stronghold X and Z coordinates (you can use F3 to see coordinates).
- The calculator estimates the End Portal room location.
- Navigate to the calculated coordinates and explore the area to find the portal room.
End Portal Location Formula
Portal location is estimated based on stronghold structure generation:
Portal Z = floor(Stronghold Z / 16) × 16 + 4
Portal Y = 27 (typically)
Example: Stronghold at (1000, -500). Portal X = floor(1000/16) × 16 + 4 = 62 × 16 + 4 = 996. Portal Z = floor(-500/16) × 16 + 4 = -32 × 16 + 4 = -508. Portal is typically at Y = 27. Note: This is an approximation—actual portal rooms may vary.
Full Description
Finding the End Portal in Minecraft can be time-consuming. Strongholds are large structures with many rooms, and the portal room can be anywhere. The End Portal Finder estimates the portal location based on stronghold coordinates, helping you narrow down your search area. This saves time when exploring strongholds.
End Portals generate in portal rooms within strongholds. These rooms are typically located near the stronghold center, but exact locations vary. The calculator uses chunk-based calculations to estimate where the portal room might be, based on how Minecraft generates stronghold structures. The portal is usually at Y = 27 (in the lower levels of the stronghold).
This calculator helps you find End Portals faster. Enter stronghold coordinates, and it estimates the portal location. Use it to narrow your search, save exploration time, or plan your route through the stronghold. Remember that this is an approximation—you may still need to explore the area to find the exact portal room. Good luck finding the End!
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find the End Portal?
End Portals are located in strongholds, which generate at specific coordinates. Use Eyes of Ender to locate strongholds. Once you find a stronghold, the portal room is typically near the center. This calculator estimates portal location based on stronghold coordinates.
How accurate is the portal finder?
The calculator provides an approximation. End Portal rooms generate in strongholds, but exact locations vary. The portal is usually in a portal room near the stronghold center. Use this as a guide, but you may need to explore the stronghold to find the exact room.
What are stronghold coordinates?
Strongholds generate at specific distances from spawn. In Java Edition, they generate in rings: first ring at ~1400 blocks, second at ~2800 blocks. Use Eyes of Ender to locate them. Enter the stronghold X and Z coordinates you find.
Can I use this in Bedrock Edition?
Stronghold generation differs between Java and Bedrock editions. This calculator uses Java Edition logic. Bedrock strongholds generate differently, so results may vary. Use as a rough guide and explore the stronghold to find the portal room.
