What you can expect

The Machame route, also referred to as the Whisky route, is one of the most popular routes on Kilimanjaro. Machame route has one of the highest summit success rates given the topography of the route which allows climbers to “trek high & sleep low” hence making it a more favourable route for acclimatisation. This route offers some of the most spectacular scenery while on the mountain.
