How to make a ladder in Minecraft
The first step is to simply collect some firewood. Hit the trees to get raw logs. The type of wood you harvest doesn’t matter, as every wooden log can be crafted into planks, and the resulting planks are crafted into sticks.
Once you have collected enough logs, turn your logs into planks by placing them in the crafting menu. Each log will make 4 boards.
Having made the boards, all that is left for you is to make the sticks. Create sticks by placing two wooden planks in a column. Each time you complete this, you should receive 4 sticks. So do it at least twice. As long as the wooden planks are arranged in a 2×1 format, you will be able to make sticks.

Using stairs in Minecraft
Stairs are beautiful in a straight line, but there are some features to be aware of. For example, you cannot place a ladder and a hatch on the same wall. If you want the hatch to be flush with the floor, your ladder just needs to be able to reach right under the block you placed the hatch in. You’ll have to jump to get from the ladder to the top, but at least this method doesn’t prevent you from using the ladder and hatch.
Otherwise, you can essentially place ladders on any opaque block you want to climb.
Once you have placed your ladders, you can enter them and, looking up, climb up. If you have a trapdoor flush with the floor, you will need to hug the ladders when you reach the top and then jump from the top ladder to the level of the trapdoor.
