sportskeeda.com:

An Animal Crossing: New Horizons island can consist of various levels of elevation. Therefore, players need some way to be able to climb to high ground. Usually, players terraform inclines to make the higher levels easily accessible. However, they can also make use of ladders for the same, and these can appear a lot more visually appealing.

Players have to craft ladders in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and there are certain steps they have to follow to do so. Here is how players can get their hands on ladders in the Nintendo life sim.

Players can get their hands on ladders in Animal Crossing: New Horizons fairly early into the game, and they will be given the recipe for the same after the first three villagers move to the island.

Once players have cleared off Tom Nook's debt and laid out the first three plots for villager homes in the game, Nook will hand them the task of crafting a recipe that requires players to use the flowers on top of the island's peak. Soon after, he will hand players the recipe for ladders in the game.

Crafting a ladder is not very difficult in New Horizons since players simply need three different kinds of materials to craft the item, including four wood, four hardwood, and four softwood. Once players have acquired the materials, they must head over to a nearby workbench and craft the ladder. However, simply crafting the ladder will not be enough, and players will also have to set up the ladder near the cliff they want to access.

Players will have to buy the Ladder Set-Up Kit Recipe for 2,000 Bells from the Nook brothers at Nook's Cranny. After having purchased the kit, players simply have to go to the cliff they want to access and pull up the Set-Up Kit from their inventory.
