here are my tips.

You can't sleep in the nether so trying to use a bed will just end up exploding in your face if your not careful.

Have an escape plan as you never know when you will need it

Don't dig down as you will probably fall in lava.

Try not to upset the local mobs unless you are prepared as they will soon swarm you if you aren't careful.

As amazing as the views are of the vast lava lakes it is better if you don't stand close to the edge as you don't want to get knocked in and lose all your stuff.

Portal Hub + Train System

While others have shared survival tips for the Nether, my tip is about exploiting the Nether!

First, in case you didn't know, the distance ratio between the Nether and the Overworld is 1:8. This means that if you travel 1 block in the Nether, you move 8 blocks by coordinates in the Overworld. Here is a coordinates calculator.

For example, if you place a portal in the Overworld and then move 1000 blocks in the Nether to create a new portal, you will be teleported 8000 blocks away in the Overworld! The only rule you need to remember is to place portals at least 33 blocks apart; otherwise, the game will use the 'old' portal, and you won't achieve the desired effect.

Another tip is to build a train system with minecarts. Minecarts travel at a speed of 8 blocks per second (28.8 km/h) using powered rails. In the Overworld, this translates to 64 blocks per second, or 230 km/h! The benefits of minecarts include:

• Automation: You can AFK during long travels.

• Precision: You won't get lost and will always reach your destination if you label them correctly.

• Efficiency: You won't waste food compared to sprinting.

For material efficiency, to maintain maximum speed, place a powered rail every 38 blocks on level ground. I recommend splitting rails into stacks of 37 to avoid counting errors.

For tunnels, I recommend using cobblestone for Ghast immunity. I've attached a schematic for a tunnel made from just 4 blocks, saving you 60% on materials. Plus you have a limited view, to see the landscape, instead of boring walls.

Also, try to build tunnels as straight as possible.

• Please make sure to note the coords of your home portal!

• Bring a flint and steel if you need to relight your portal or if you want a ruined portal.

• If you can, also bring some spare obsidian to repair any ruined portals.

• Bring fire resistance potions if you can make them.

• Use striders! They're there for a reason, so bring fungus on a stick and a saddle, just be very careful when getting off.

• Bring elytra if you have it, just be very careful of durability.

• Have some spare bowls. If you run out of food, mushroom stew is very easy to get here.

• Mark down the coords of anything interesting you find.

• Bastion remnants are very much late-game, and are best done with a more stealthy approach.

• A shield is a must, alongside at least iron armour.

• If you ever run out of sticks or wood for tools, remember warped and crimson forests exist.

• If you're on the lookout for ancient debris, it mostly spawns at around Y=14.

I’m pretty new to Minecraft so I might not have the best tips but this is what I’ve picked up so far?

1. Bring the right gear. So make sure you have loads of food, a shield and armour - try and get this enchanted it helps a lot!, and always carry a flint and steel to relight your portal whenever you need.

2. Golden gear so like atleast 1 piece of gold armour. It’s really good at stopping Piglins attacking you.

3. Fire resistance potions are really good as they can save your life if you fall in to the lava

4. Use cobblestone or a block that’s fire resistant to build paths and bridges

5. Watch where your going coz the Nether is filled with lava lakes and drops

6. Be on the eye out for look

7. Bring or create a respawn anchor and Charge it with Glowstone to set a respawn point in the area

Like I said, I am new to Minecraft but hopefully these tools can help you!

My self-check list before I go to the nether

1. 1x 64 stack of cobblestone to immediately build around the portal

2. 1x Door for the reason above.

3. I try to make sure I have at least x32 beef/steak w/e you want as it's best

4. I make sure I have fire-resistant potions

5. Fully enchanted set of Iron Armor if I don't have a diamond suit yet.

6. Fully Enchanted sword

7. It's not normal but I also carry sand as well as you can spam it around you in lava.

8. Do not attack Pigmen ever, this will cause you massive problems.

9. If you hear the Ghast cry, identify the direction and quickly build a 3x3 wall out of cobblestone and you can withstand the initial blast.

These are my self-check things I go through.

Obviously make sure you use cobblestone to mark your path through the nether as well, this way you can find your way back.
