Daily driving time:Attractions in the Altay region are scattered, and daily driving can exceed 4 hours. When choosing a route, try to select ones with 1–2 main attractions per day to avoid long rides.
Time at attractions:Seniors may need more rest time, so choose routes with longer stays, such as half a day of free time at Kanas Lake.

Low-intensity routes:Prioritize routes centered on Kanas Lake and Hemu Village, avoiding high-altitude or hiking-required attractions (e.g., the Baihaba Village border line requires walking).
Relaxed pace:Choose tours with later daily departure times (e.g., after 9 AM) and a loose schedule.
