Ladders,(Series | HW)[1][2] also known as the Stepladders,(TLoZ)[1] are recurring Items and Objects in The Legend of Zelda series.[name reference needed]
Location and Uses
The Legend of Zelda
The Stepladder is found in Level 4 in the First Quest and in Level 6 in the Second Quest. It is used to traverse small spans of Water, Holes, or Lava, which would otherwise block Link's progress. It is used automatically when Link needs to cross any of these obstacles.
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
The Wind Waker
The Minish Cap
Ladders are found across Hyrule in The Minish Cap. They can be found inside Trees, Secret Caves, Minish-sized cracks in the Overworld, and within other cave systems throughout the land. They often lead down to rooms that contain Chests or the homes of Forest Picori.
All the Ladders in the game already exist in place with the exception of one; after Link has Fused Kinstone Pieces with all four of the Tingle Siblings?, a Ladder extends down from the center of North Hyrule Field, leading to a large Chest containing the Magical Boomerang.
Twilight Princess
Skyward Sword
Breath of the Wild
Ladders are within shrines and on the sides of some buildings. They enable Link to climb without using Stamina.
Other Appearances

In Zelda's Adventure, the Ladder can be found next to a tree in the Forest of Ogbam. Its only use is to bridge and cross the giant chasm near the entrance of the Shrine of Earth.
