Cold climates and steep elevations contain several exclusive structures with custom chest rewards. Prepare leather boots to avoid sinking in powder snow and bring blocks or scaffolding for scaling cliffs.
Climbing Peaks and Windswept Terrain
High-altitude landmarks generate right on the ridgelines, making them visible from surrounding valleys once chunks render:
- Observatory: Climb stony, frozen, and jagged mountain peaks. Check the highest summits for large stone and dome-topped observatory buildings.
- Windmill: Hike into windswept hills and windswept cliffs, scanning exposed ridges for tall windmill sails.
Trekking Through Snowy Forests and Tundra
Cold flatlands and old-growth conifers hold the remaining winter structures:
- Ice Castle and Ice Igloo: Travel broadly across snowy biomes. Because their pale blocks blend into snow-covered ground, watch for unnatural geometric walls and domes against the horizon.
- Graveyard: Locate a mega spruce taiga biome and search beneath the giant spruce trees for a stone brick church and adjoining graveyard.
- Lighthouse: If your snowy biome borders the sea, follow the snowy beach shoreline to find coastal lighthouses and loot their chests before heading inland.
