Children are welcome during Visitations at Meditation Mount. Children are also welcome on a case-by-case basis during our events, as some quiet indoor meditation events may not be suitable. If you have a question of if your child can come to an event, please contact connect@meditationmount.org. If children do attend programs and/or visitations, we ask that parents or adult guardians are responsible for their whereabouts and behavior and remain quiet and respectful of the meditative peaceful nature of the property and its other guests. Please note, there are no special facilities for children on site. For safety reasons, children under 14 years of age must be supervised by a responsible adult at all times. Young people 15 years and over are expected to know and respect the Visitor Guidelines for Meditation Mount.
