The '''endless stairs''' (also stylized with {{wp|sneer quotes}} as '''"endless" stairs''') are an obstacle within the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. They are behind the final [[Big Star Door]], which leads to [[Bowser in the Sky]]. Unless the player has more than 70 [[Power Star]]s in ''Super Mario 64'', or has more than 80 Power Stars and is playing as [[Mario]] in the [[reissue|remake]], the player character is met by the endless staircase instead. The endless stairs are supposedly continuous, although it is actually an illusion created by warping the player character back down a few steps once they reach a certain point,<ref>{{cite|author=Blaf Snarten Burg|date=January 12, 2019|url=youtu.be/gBHwF4kfMYY?t=453|title=Off Camera Secrets Super Mario 64 Boundary Break (REUPLOAD READ DESC)|timestamp=07:33|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=February 4, 2025}}</ref> combined with {{wp|distance fog}} to hide the top of the staircase. In the remake, the player character's position can be seen moving from the Touch Screen map, and the ceiling at the top of the stairs is actually slightly visible due to lighting changes.
