The Machame route, also known as the “Whiskey” route, is the most popular route on Kilimanjaro. Machame’s draw is in its scenic beauty. However, the trail is considered difficult, steep and challenging, particularly due to its shorter itinerary. Therefore this route is better suited for more adventurous folks or those with some high altitude, hiking or backpacking experience.
The route approaches Mount Kilimanjaro from the south after a short trip by car (around 30 minutes) to Machame Gate. From there its a steep and tough trek through the rain forest to Shira Ridge. Then the route traverses underneath Kilimanjaro’s Southern Ice Field on a path known as the Southern Circuit before summiting from Barafu Camp. Descent is made via the Mweka route.
Tanzania Horizon Safaris offers Machame as a six days Machame & seven days Machame variation. The six day variation combines days four and five, going from Barranco Camp to Barafu Camp without staying at Karanga Camp.
