My seven year old was fine and went back to do it again, but she is rather long legged for her age and can scramble like a monkey. It also says children under 8 should not attempt. Just don't expect to be able to turn around. There are a few escape paths to the right as you proceed if you want to bail out.

Take the full day to take meandering trails from the entrance to the Mountain House. An ideal visit would be one on a week day when the access fee is lower and there are fewer people.
