What Is Ladder in Minecraft?

Ladder is a climbable block that attaches to the side of solid blocks. Players and some mobs can climb up and down ladders. They can also slow a fall when you press against them while falling.

How Does Ladder Work?

  • Attach to the side of solid blocks - they cannot be placed freestanding.
  • Players climb by pressing toward the ladder.
  • Pressing against a ladder while falling slows your descent.
  • An axe breaks it fastest.
