Are there any age limits for this trek? - Day

Generally, there are no strict age limits for trekking in Nepal, as much of it depends upon the individual fitness and experience of the people concerned. The following are a few important aspects to consider:

Children Most trekking companies welcome children to go on family-friendly treks, mainly on popular routes such as the Annapurna and Everest regions. Naturally, one would have to be careful in choosing a trek that would suit the child’s fitness and capability.

Older Adults Participation by older trekkers is also allowed, provided there is good health and stamina to take on the demands of the trek. However, the recommendation is in advance to consult with an old age doctor before going on a trek.

Group Considerations Agencies also have age limits for all or specific treks and routes that require further and more critical conditions. In this respect, discussion of such issues with the agency through which one has booked is relevant.

Safety Trekkers of any age must pay attention to altitude sickness. Weather conditions may suddenly change. All trekkers should allow for adequate acclimatization and pacing.
