Minecraft is one of the most robust open-world RPG ever created. The games' world is a combination of various biomes, which are areas of land with unique characteristics based on real-world natural geography. While most biomes are fairly common, some are not. Currently, there are 79 biomes in Minecraft Java Edition and 75 in Bedrock. In this article, we are going to list out the top 5 rarest biomes to spawn in the game.
Top 5 Rarest Biomes In Minecraft
5 - Bamboo Jungle and Bamboo Jungle Hills
These two biomes in Minecraft can be considered the same thing, with the only difference being the terrain. The bamboo jungle is filled with bamboo and large trees - only 2×2 jungle trees and large, branching oak trees may generate here.
All jungle exclusive mobs might spawn here, especially pandas. They have a higher spawn rate in this biome comparing to a regular jungle biome - this is fairly obvious, as pandas eat bamboo. If you are lucky enough, you may encounter a brown panda, one of the rarest mobs in Minecraft as well.
In Java Edition, Jungle Pyramids might also spawn - they are filled with traps and loots.
4 - Mushroom Field and Mushroom Field Shore
These rare mushroom field biomes have grass replaced with mycelium. They consist of a combination of flat landscapes and steep hills filled with a large amount of brown and red mushrooms, along with the giant mushrooms variant. The Shore variant has rivers and shores, which are much flatter.
These are the only biomes in Minecraft that spawn Mooshrooms. Most of them are of the red variant - you need a lightning bolt to transform one into brown.
Mushroom field is also one of the best biomes for building homes in Minecraft.
3 - Snowy Taiga Mountains
Technically, Snowy Taigas are the coldest biomes in the game. There are three variants: normal, hills and mountains, with the last one being much rarer. The mountains in this biome are tall and really steep, which makes them very hard to get through.
This biome has the same spawn as a normal Snowy Taiga biome, which are wolves, foxes, and black & white rabbits. Due to the lack of flat surfaces, no buildings would spawn here.

2 - Modified Badlands Plateau
The Modified Badlands Plateau has harsher terrain than the normal Badlands Plateau while featuring multiple smaller plateaus. This biome is based on large plateaus that have eroded over time, with Eroded Badlands tile replacing the usual thin Desert Border.
Modified badlands plateaus use the same mob spawning chances as badlands, with the usual spider, skeleton, creeper, slime roster.
1 - Modified Jungle Edge
The modified jungle edge biome is insanely rare as it only generates in strict conditions. Currently, it is the rarest biome in Minecraft. To get a modified jungle biome, you need a jungle biome to spawn next to a swamp hills biome... which rarely ever happens.
When it does happen, the Modified Jungle Edge will spawn as part of a double-layered transition. The modified jungle edge spawns next to the jungle and a thin normal jungle edge spawns next to the swamp hills. The spawned biomes are often very small as well - modified jungle edges cover only a few millionths (0.00027%) of the overworld.
