A vehicle bumper step formed by an upwardly open frame having clamp members secured to its upper surface for mounting the frame on a vehicle bumper by gripping a bumper flange. Longitudinally adjustable arms, connected with the frame, project toward a vertical surface of the bumper for stabilizing the position of the frame relative to the bumper. A step having a tread portion is movable from a first position nested by the frame to a second position projecting horizontally beyond the bumper in a direction outwardly from the vehicle and includes a hook portion engaging the frame normally preventing separation of the step relative to the frame.
