How to Make a Nether Portal in Minecraft: Step-by-Step Guide

Wondering how you can step into the fiery depths of the Nether in Minecraft? You’re in the right place! We’re about to dive into an easy guide on creating your very own Nether portal.

So, let’s get into it: How do you make a Nether portal in Minecraft? It’s simpler than you might think!

Building Your Gateway to the Nether

To start your adventure into the Nether, you’ll need to construct a Nether portal. First, gather 10 to 14 obsidian blocks. You can get obsidian by pouring water over lava and then mining it with a diamond or netherite pickaxe.

Next, it’s time to build your portal. In the overworld, outline a vertical rectangle with obsidian blocks. The minimum size should be 4 blocks wide and 5 blocks tall. If you’re feeling fancy, you can make it bigger, but that’s the minimum to get it working. Remember, you don’t need to fill the corners with obsidian – that’s just a style choice!

Igniting Your Nether Portal

Now that your portal frame is up, it’s time to bring it to life! Grab a flint and steel or a fire charge, stand in front of your portal, and right-click the inside of your frame. The portal should glow purple, indicating it’s active. Step into the portal, wait a few seconds, and voila! You’re in the Nether.

Exploring the Nether is exciting but also dangerous. Prepare well with armor, weapons, and food. The Nether is home to unique materials and mobs not found in the overworld, making the risk worth the reward!
