She looks rather 'old' (but that may just be because of genetic makeup) when we first saw her. But when Kiara and Kovu aged, she seemed like she could hold her own still.

Was she in her 60's at the end of TLK SP?

I imagine her to be younger than Mufasa/Scar/Sarabi/Sarafina, but older than Simba/Nala.

Didn't you already ask this question a few threads down? While we may never know for sure, I always imagined Zira to be in the same generation as Simba and Nala. When we first see Zira, I believe she is in her mid 30s (equivalent to 4 lion years). Since the director described her son Kovu as a "teenaged killer" in a
making-of documentary (at 4:27), by the second half of the movie, she is in her early to mid 50s (equivalent to 7 lion years).

I heard the director describe Zira as a "mature" woman/female, I`ve always believed she was older than Simba and Nala.. I`d guess she`s in her early/mid 40s in the beginning of SP, and early/mid 50s later on, if we are thinking in human age terms and say the time gap between seeing Cub Kiara/Kovu and Adult Kiara/Kovu is ten years.

If Zira was a human, I'd picture her to be in her 50s-60s.

I think that Zira would be 40-50 human years (closer to 50 I guess)

40-50, not younger, since she has a good memory of Scar's reign.
