[B]I recently went for pilgrimage to the beautiful Uttarakhand.  Since it is a mountainous region and there was a lot to hike, I realized that the younger you are the better is the time to go for such physically tasking trips, especially when you are going on a travel package tour. These planned tours have very strictly scheduled itinerary and you are forced to follow it to the T. Then again it also depends on the general fitness of an individual regardless of the age. What's your take on this?[/B]
