The Machame Route, often called the "Whiskey Route," is a popular, six or seven-day camping route on Kilimanjaro, known for its high summit success rates and diverse landscapes. It's approximately 62 km (37 miles) long and approaches the mountain from the southwest, starting at Machame Gate.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of the Machame Route:
Approach:
The route begins at Machame Gate (1,640m) and ascends through rainforest, then moorland, and eventually reaches the Shira Plateau.
Shira Plateau:
Trekkers then join the Lemosho and Shira routes at the Lava Tower, crossing the Shira Plateau.
Southern Side:
The route traverses the southern side of the mountain, passing through Barranco Camp and the Barranco Wall.
Barafu Camp:
After climbing the Barranco Wall, trekkers reach Barafu Camp, where they rest before their summit attempt.
Summit Attempt:
The summit attempt is typically made at night, with trekkers ascending to Stella Point and then Uhuru Peak (5895m), the highest point in Africa.
Descent:
The descent is made via the Mweka route, not retracing the ascent route.
Acclimatization:
The Machame Route is well-regarded for its acclimatization profile, with the longer seven-day version offering even better acclimatization opportunities.
