How to Get a Ladder in Animal Crossing
You don’t have to get far into the game before you can open up your entire island and get access to a ladder, which you can use to explore the rest of your island. Though, there are a few things you have to do in the early-game first that happen while playing normally.
Using a Ladder in Animal Crossing
To use a ladder, equip it like any other tool, and then press A with the ladder equipped when facing a cliff. That’s all it takes to climb up something.
Do Ladders Break Over Time?
Unlike other tools in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the ladder will not break, so you won’t have to worry about replacing it every so often.
Can You Give Your Friend a Ladder Early?
You can! If you have access to ladders, but your friend doesn’t, you can craft one and give it to your friend when they visit, or if you have the Ladder DIY recipe for sale in your Nook’s Cranny, your friend can buy the recipe in your shop. While technically, the ladder comes at a certain point in-game, there’s nothing game-breaking you can do with it if you manage to find it early.
