Embark on a 6-day trek to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro via the Machame Route. Enjoy the services of a professional guide and a porter to carry your gear.
Climb to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro on a 6-day trek. Follow the Machame route, which is one of the most scenic routes on the mountain. Enjoy the convenience of transfers to and from your hotel in Moshi.

Day 1: Machame Gate to Machame Camp
Drive from Moshi/Arusha to the Mount Kilimanjaro National Park Gate. Pass through the village of Machame, located at the base of the mountain. Leave the park gate and walk through the rainforest on a winding trail up a ridge. Continue a short distance until you reach the Machame Camp.

Day 2: Machame Camp to Shira Camp
Leave the glades of the rainforest and continue on an ascending path. Cross the little valley and walk along a steep rocky ridge, covered with heather, until the ridge ends. The route now turns west onto a river gorge. Overnight at the Shira campsite.

Day 3: Shira Camp to Lava Tower to Barranco Camp
From the Shira Plateau, continue to the east up a ridge, passing the junction towards the peak of Kibo. As you continue, your direction changes to the southeast towards the Lava Tower, called the "Shark's Tooth." Shortly after the tower, come to the second junction which brings you up to the Arrow Glacier at an altitude of 16,000 feet. Continue down to the Barranco Hut at an altitude of 13,000 feet. Rest, enjoy dinner, and overnight.

Day 4: Barranco Camp to Karanga Camp to Barafu Camp
Leave Barranco and continue on a steep ridge passing the Barranco Wall, to the Karanga Valley campsite. Then, leave Karanga and hit the junction which connects with the Mweka Trail. Continue up to the Barafu Hut. Make camp, rest, enjoy dinner, and prepare for the summit day. The two peaks of Mawenzi and Kibo are to be seen from this position.

Day 5: Barafu Camp to Summit to Mweka Hut
Very early in the morning, continue your way to the summit between the Rebmann and Ratzel glaciers. Head in a northwesterly direction and ascend through heavy scree towards Stella Point on the crater rim. This is the most mentally and physically challenging portion of the trek.

At Stella Point, stop for a short rest and be rewarded with the most magnificent sunrise you are ever likely to see (weather permitting). From Stella Point, you may encounter snow all the way on your 1-hour ascent to the summit. At Uhuru Peak, you have reached the highest point on Mount Kilimanjaro and the continent of Africa.

From the summit, make your descent continuing straight down to the Mweka Hut campsite, stopping at Barafu for lunch. Mweka Camp is situated in the upper forest and mist or rain can be expected in the late afternoon. Later in the evening, enjoy your last dinner on the mountain and a well-earned sleep.

Day 6: Mweka Camp to Moshi
After breakfast, continue the descent down to the Mweka Park Gate to receive your certificates. A vehicle will meet you at Mweka Park Gate to drive you back to your hotel in Moshi.
