Build a portal at spawn and you land about 49 blocks from a nether fortress, so blaze rods and wart come early. The overworld side is plain: you start in old growth birch forest by a small lake, with a beach about 45 blocks off. Trial chambers sit about 159 blocks out, but the village is farther, around 406 blocks west.
