7 Days Kilimanjaro Group Joining | Machame
The Machame Route, known for its stunning views and high summit success rate, offers a “climb high, sleep low” approach for better acclimatization. Typically taking six to seven days, the six-day option skips Karanga campsite for a longer trek to base camp. Starting at Machame Gate (1,800 meters), you’ll traverse through rainforest, ascend to Shira Camp, and continue past Lava Tower and the Great Barranco Wall. After summiting, descend via the Mweka Trail. Often called the ‘Whiskey Route’ for its steeper, longer path compared to the ‘Coca-Cola Route’ (Marangu Route), it provides excellent acclimatization and a high success rate.
