The Stairway to Heaven is in Chatan, Okinawa. It can easily be located as it's right outside Camp Foster's Firehouse Gate (Gate 3). It leads directly up 268 steps to the outer perimeter of Plaza Housing and is a grueling leg workout.
From the base, it doesn't look that tough. However, the steps are high, and it will give your legs a killer workout whether you walk it or run it. Depending on your activity level, you might need to do it more than once to get that burn in.
But, bring water, especially if you bring your dog as there's nothing around! That is, except from maybe a vending machine or two down one of the side streets at the bottom.
If you're traveling there in a SOFA sponsored vehicle (Y-plate), you must park on Camp Foster and make the rest of the trip to the Stairway to Heaven by foot.
