CinderStride – Walk on Lava

Walk on lava in Minecraft.
A vanilla friendly mod that adds lava walking boots, similar to Frost Walker but for the Nether.

Hidden in Bastions is a relic that lets you cross lava oceans like they’re solid ground.

Works great with HearthGuard. HearthFires get stronger and mobs really don’t like them.

1.1.0 Update

This update adds a full upgrade path and a few survival improvements that make the boots feel a lot better to use long term.

  • Upgradeable boots
    • No durability loss while walking on lava
  • Magma block protection
    • You can walk on magma without taking damage
  • Lava fall safety
    • Falling into lava creates a temporary basalt platform under you
    • You still take fall damage, this just saves you from the lava
  • HearthFire
    • Use a Cinder Core on a campfire to upgrade it

Early on the boots feel risky. Later on they become something you can rely on.

Features

  • Walk across lava without bridges or fire resistance
  • Lava turns into temporary basalt under your feet
  • The path collapses behind you if you stop moving
  • Designed to encourage exploration of Bastions by adding rewards
  • Campfires can be upgraded into HearthFires

Falling into a lava lake

HearthFire

  • Right-click a campfire with a Cinder Core to turn it into a HearthFire
  • Has stronger visuals and burns hotter
  • Cooks food twice as fast
  • Works with HearthGuard
    • Mobs are pushed back even harder

CinderStride Boots

  • Found in Bastion Treasure Rooms
  • Displayed on an item frame, similar to Elytra
  • Turn lava into temporary basalt as you walk
  • Basalt slowly turns back into lava
  • Standing still too long can leave you stranded
  • Uses durability while walking on lava
  • Won’t break completely, but can become unusable until repaired
  • Can be enchanted. Mending and Unbreaking help a lot

You are meant to keep moving.

Repairing the Boots

  • Repair with Netherite Ingots
  • Or use Cinder Shards for double the effect
