Hi Chris, I've just been and done this trek and I'm 57 and like you, reasonably fit. I managed to complete this trek but I can tell you it was the hardest thing I've ever done,(and that includes summiting Kilimanjaro 5 years ago), which was also very tough. The difference with the EBC Trek is that it's longer in distance and time and a gruling slog nearly every day, over mostly up hill, down dale rough terrain. The group always go as fast as the slowest person and breaks to catch your breath are very frequent. There were many people older than me on the trail, don't know if they made it or not to EBC, but go for it, the scenery is from the Gods and unique and so worth it. Just don't expect it to be a stroll in the park, good luck.
What can I expect for a 14 day trek at the end of december? Cant find any info on people commenting on trekking that time of year.... I know the pro should be less people around but I am worried about the cold conditions, especially in the night....
A:
it would be very cold in december. In april itself night weather was unbearable.
