7 days · Kilimanjaro · Machame Route · From US$2,657 per person
The Machame Route is one of Kilimanjaro's well-known climbing routes. It approaches the mountain from the south-west and passes through rainforest, moorland, alpine desert and the high summit zone. One of its main features is the opportunity to gain altitude during the day and descend to sleep at a lower elevation on sections such as the Lava Tower–Barranco stage. The route also includes the famous Barranco Wall before continuing toward Karanga and Barafu.
