Legolas refers to his fellow Fellowship members (except Gandalf, of course) as children, suggesting he's much older than any of them.

It's equally possible that Legolas was born way after the Rings of Power timeline or some time within the Third Age, which could put him at "only" a few hundred years old.Ĭlues within the text are conflicting. As the Elves are timeless and Legolas' father was born in the First Age, Legolas could've conceivably been born as early as the Second Age, over 3000 years before The Fellowship of the Ring. Even more so than Gandalf, Legolas' age is very hard to pin down, and the elf is one of the few main Lord of the Rings characters that Tolkien doesn't date specifically.
