When does high altitude begin?

Not sure how high you mean, but if you mean high enough that you need oxygen, you're looking at 20,000 feet. Anything from 10,000 feet upwards (if you are mountain climbing) you still run the risk of altitude sickness as the levels of oxygen are very low, but you can combat this with slow and deep breathing, and don't push yourself too far.
