TRAVEL GUIDE
The Machame Route - Tanzania - Mount Kilimanjaro
Machame Route: our most popular route. Usually done in 6 or 7 days. Machame has one of the highest likelihoods of summit success due to the incorporation of the Lava Tower on day three which allows a climb high, sleep low difference on day three of 600 vertical metres. The assault is via Barafu which follows a firm ridge line most of the way to the top of the summit cone. The summit assault from Barafu (common to Lemosho, Shira, Machame and Umbwe) is much easier than the assault from Kibo Huts, which is used by the Marangu and traditional Rongai routes).
The cost of a fully ported, catered and guided seven day/six night climb is appx US$2,012 per person.
