Question

So, I have to make a trip later on in the year to see family members myself , and no matter how I plan it, I'm still stuck with having to stay somewhere over night since I'm from the outback. What is the absolute minimum age to stay at a backpackers?

Answer 1

it depends on your mental capability if ur scared dont go but if not 14

Answer 2

they wont let you stay unless you are over 18.

some hostels let families with under 18s stay but not under 18s without over 18s and these are not in main cities mainly country towns and coastal towns,
