Detailed Overview
Machame Route approaches Kilimanjaro from the south-west and is considered one of the most beautiful routes with incredible vegetation. Every day you walk through a different vegetation zone you cross rain-forest, run over ridges and through valleys and end up in the middle of the dry stone desert, the Shira Plateau, the highest plateau in the world. The last part of the hike on to Uhuru Peak leads through an arctic climate zone. The route is also suitable for a better acclimatization to the altitude. If you choose the Machame Route, you have a very good chance of reaching the summit of Kilimanjaro. However, it should be said in advance that the Machame Route is also one of the most popular routes and is therefore often crowded.
Because the trail is considered difficult, steep and challenging, this route requires good physical condition, as well as hiking or backpacking experience. The tour can be done in 6 or 7 days, whereby the 7 day route offers a maximum time for acclimatization.
