What will you learn?

In this step-by-step guide, you will learn how to download and install the Journey Map mod for Minecraft. Keep in mind that this is a mod, therefore, you will need either Forge or Fabric in order to run the JourneyMap mod successfully.

JourneyMap is a mod for Minecraft that provides an in-game map of the player’s surroundings. The map can be viewed in a web browser, and can also be configured to show the player’s location, nearby mobs, and other information. Additionally, JourneyMap allows players to set waypoints, which can be used to mark important locations or to navigate to a specific point in the game. The mod is available for both the Java and Bedrock editions of Minecraft.
