6 Nights / 7 Days
The Machame route, known for its stunning scenery and relatively high success rate, is a popular choice for those aiming to summit Mount Kilimanjaro. Over 7 days, this journey takes you through lush rainforests, alpine deserts, and rocky ridges, culminating in a rewarding summit at Uhuru Peak (5,895 meters), the highest point in Africa.
Arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport, transfer to your hotel in Moshi, and attend a pre-climb briefing with your trekking company. Complete a final gear check and preparation for the climb.
Drive from Moshi to Machame Gate (1-2 hours), complete park formalities, and begin your trek through the lush rainforest. Ascend through dense vegetation to reach Machame Camp (3,000 meters) after 5-7 hours of trekking.
Continue trekking through the thinning rainforest and enter the moorland zone, where unique plant life thrives. Ascend through rocky ridges and valleys to reach Shira Camp (3,840 meters) after 4-6 hours of trekking.
Trek across the Shira Plateau, enjoying expansive views of the surrounding landscapes. Ascend to Lava Tower (4,600 meters) for acclimatization before descending via the Barranco Wall, a challenging yet rewarding climb. Arrive at Barranco Camp (3,950 meters) after 6-8 hours of trekking.
Continue your trek through the alpine desert, traversing the Karanga Valley. Ascend to Barafu Camp (4,673 meters), the final base camp before the summit attempt. Spend the rest of the day resting, hydrating, and eating a hearty meal in preparation for the summit push. The trek takes approximately 7-9 hours.
Begin your summit attempt around midnight, trekking through steep and challenging terrain. Reach Stella Point (5,685 meters) at the crater rim before continuing to Uhuru Peak (5,895 meters), the highest point in Africa. After celebrating your achievement, descend back to Barafu Camp for a short rest, then continue down to Mweka Camp (3,100 meters). The total trekking time for the day is 11-15 hours.
Descend through the rainforest to Mweka Gate, where you'll receive your summit certificates. Transfer back to Moshi or Arusha to celebrate your accomplishment with a well-deserved meal and rest. Depart from Tanzania or continue with further travel plans.
