Hi all, will be in Icmeler in September, staying at the Club Sun Village. My husband says, this year im going to do the walk, at 67 will he be ok? sorry dont want to fuss, but i would like to keep him a little longer!!

Thanks everyone..hope to meet some of you in September.

I did it last year and my recommendations are

Don't go there on your own just in case
Take decent trainers the ground is quite loose underfoot
I would recommend long trousers, I did it last year and wore shorts hence got scratched to pieces
Take plenty of water
Take a camera for the stunning views

Take it easy and slow and he should be OK.

I dont like to state the obvious but it would depend on how fit and agile he is and if he has any medical conditions. I have seen some at that age fitter than a 30 year old and some a lot younger not fit at all. If in doubt I would say no.

I myself would be quite happy to send my hubby up a mountain, a big one lol!

Did it last September, turn left at flip flop, and it' not a race.

Both Aliral (Ralph) and myself went up, unfortunatley the flag was missing, but the views from up there are Supurb...
