Mediterranean Steps snakes from Jews Gate (just besides the Old Jewish Cementry) all the way to the uppermost peak of
The Rock.

Refurbishment work has made an improvement, providing a much safer walk, however, one still has to be careful as there are still some spots where bannisters would add extra safety.

My recommendation is that, even if walking up Meditteranean Steps can be a rather exhausting experience, it is far safer than walking down.
