It depends. If you're describing someone who is actually standing on a step or walking up or down the stairs, you would say "on the stairs". If a person were standing in front of the stairs, you could say "at the stairs" or "at the staircase".

Is it correct English usage to say 'walking up the stairs' or 'climbing up the stairs'?

Either of these are correct. Americans prefer 'walking.' If it is given as an imperative, 'climbing' is probably equal to 'walking'. Just 'go upstairs' is probably more common than either of these choices. I need to walk upstairs and go to the bathroom. Bobby, climb up those stairs and go back to bed! Let's go upstairs and then slide down the banister.
