A cirque stairway or sequence of cirque steps is a stepped succession of glacially eroded rock basins. Their individual formation is that of a cirque. These steps are arranged one above and behind the other at different heights in the terrain and caused by the same geomorphodynamic processes, albeit resulting in different landform shapes depending on the type of rock and the depositional circumstances involved. The lower step often lacks the steep headwalls typical of cirques.

| - Каровая лестница — группа, серия каров (то есть чашеобразных замкнутых углублений, врезанных в склон горы), расположенных в несколько ярусов один под другим и разделённых уступами. По днищам каров в каровых лестницах можно судить о высоте снеговой линии в разные ледниковые эпохи. Часто встречается в верховьях долин горных стран. (ru)
