HIGHLIGHTS
- Shira Plateau Panoramic Overview
- Kibo and Mawenzi viewpoint
Machame is one of the most popular routes on Kili, but for sure it is not the simplest one. Altezza recommends this route for the climbers with previous mountaineering experience and good physical preparation. Furthermore, if your travel is scheduled for a rainy season, torrential rains may wash out the treks and your climbing will be more challenging.
Machame route advantages:
- Relative affordability. Machame is the only route on the mountain Kilimanjaro with a high percent of climbing success for a modest price.
- The route starts at 900 m above the sea level and traverses all the climatic zones – from the tropical forests to the ice glaciers of the Kibo volcano.
