Description

Jungle Stairs are the stair-form variant of jungle planks, crafted by arranging six Jungle Planks on a crafting table in a staircase pattern to yield four stairs per recipe. Jungle Stairs are renewable (you can farm them endlessly by growing jungle saplings into jungle trees) and are fastest to break with an axe, with a hardness of 2 and a blast resistance of 3. The pale tan tone with a subtle grain matches the rest of the jungle wood family, and Jungle Stairs generate naturally as part of shipwrecks found in ocean and beach biomes.

Jungle Stairs are the workhorse of vertical detailing in jungle-wood builds, used to climb between floors, slope rooftops, and craft benches, tables, and decorative arches. Jungle Stairs are flammable and serve as furnace fuel, smelting 1.5 items per block, and they can be waterlogged so water flows through them without being displaced. Added to Java Edition in 1.3.1 and Bedrock in v0.8.0, Jungle Stairs remain the default choice whenever a jungle build needs a smooth, climbable slope.
