2. He is climbing up the ladder.

Is 'up' an adverb or a preposition?
Answered by Ms. Sue
In both of these sentences, "up" is used as a preposition. The phrases "up the ladder" and "up the hill" show that it's a preposition.

However, "up" is used as an adverb in this sentence.

Joe looked up at the tower.
