There are a whole range of possibilities. For example, about 15 houses in our street have a 2-3 meter high slope in the garden. What you do also depends, for example, on how you want to use the garden.
For example, we have three levels:
1st level with 50cm L-stones, which protrude about 40 cm above the garden level. On top, we placed a wide natural stone windowsill (about 40 cm deep and a total of 6 meters long - divided into one piece of 4 meters and one piece of 2 meters), so that you have a nice bench over several meters in length. Above that, two more levels (each about 60 cm step and then another 20 cm piled up), which in our case were planted with perennials and shrubs.
Other neighbors use the steps for vegetable cultivation, for example. Depending on the orientation (ours faces south), the vegetables grow especially well here.
We have a centrally located stairway with 15 cm steps, a total of 14 steps.
Therefore, I advise you to consider whether your primary goal is to have the lower part of the property as large as possible (for playing soccer, badminton, etc.) or whether you want to design the lower part smaller and thus make the steps useful for garden design. Personally, I would not find a 2-meter wall attractive.
