7 Days Kilimanjaro Climbing Via Machame Route
Overview
Known as the “Whiskey” route due to its challenging nature and higher cost compared to the Marangu route, Machame stands out as one of Kilimanjaro’s premier routes. It’s ideal for acclimatization and offers stunning scenery through 5 climatic zones. Popular yet scenic, it approaches the summit from the southwest, descends via Mweka, and features highlights like the Shira Plateau, Lava Tower, and Great Barranco Wall—a rewarding choice for adventurous trekkers.
