1. Kilimanjaro Climbing Machame Route Seven Days
About This Route
The Machame route, also referred to as the Whiskey route, was one of the most
popular routes ad crowded on Kilimanjaro. But now many people havebeen
choosing Lemosho as altenative to avoid crowd which makes the route less
populated compare to Lemosho. This is one of our favoriteroute due to its
scenery and success rates. Machameroute is one of the highest summit success
rates given the topography and nature of the route which allows climbers to “trek
high & sleep low” hence making it a more favorableroute for acclimatization. This
route offers someof the most spectacular scenery while on the mountain. The
Machame route starts in the south westside of the mountain and proceeds
steeply north, traversing the Shira plateau and eventually joining the Shira and
Lemosho routes justafter the Shira cave camp. The Machame route can be done
in minimum 6 days but a 7 day trek is recommended to allow climbers been well
rested and acclimatized before making the final ascent to the summit.
