Hi Pamela, the is from our FAQ page: "Can children ride the rail explorers?" Yes! The explorers are easy to ride and children are welcome. Children must be accompanied by a rider at least 16 years of age to operate the brakes. Groups of children can ride on their own explorer, provided it is coupled to an adult's explorer. For safety all riders must be secured in their own seat. The only exception is infants, who must be secured in a chest harness to an adult rider. Infants in a chest harness travel free. Younger children may not be able to reach the pedals but can be safely buckled in to enjoy the ride. We offer toddler harnesses for additional security for little explorers. It is not safe for children to be seated on your lap and this is strictly forbidden.

We brought our 25 month old toddler and he loved it. He actually fell asleep during the ride. He was harnessed in tight.

Under 16 years they can't control the hand brake. I took a camp and that was the rule, I don't know if it was something they wanted for our group or a general rule. I would assume it was a general rule. We had an amazing time, would do it again in a heartbeat!
