Whiskey here means the Machame Route. The Machame Route is steep and winds all throughout the mountain on a <strong>Mount Kilimanjaro Climb. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Possibly the most scenic route when <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/mount-kilimanjaro-climbing\"><strong>Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro<\/strong><\/a>, the <strong>Machame route<\/strong> is known as the &#8220;Whiskey Route&#8221; because of the tougher challenge it provides the climbers with. This path leads through magnificent forests before going through the moorland to the Shira Plateau.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Kilimanjaro National Park, approximately 50% of trekkers use the <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/machame-route\"><strong>Machame Route<\/strong><\/a> to ascend\u00a0Kilimanjaro. This route is very scenic, providing hikers with incredible views and with varying landscapes all throughout the <strong>Kilimanjaro Climb. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>KILIMANJARO HIKE THROUGH THE MACHAME ROUTE <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"605\" src=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Kilimanjaro-Hike-Through-The-Machame-Route-1024x605.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Kilimanjaro-Hike-Through-The-Machame-Route-1024x605.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Kilimanjaro-Hike-Through-The-Machame-Route-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Kilimanjaro-Hike-Through-The-Machame-Route-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Kilimanjaro-Hike-Through-The-Machame-Route.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The trek begins at the Machame\u00a0Gate, located in the southern base of the mountain. The hike starts within Kilimanjaro\u2019s\u00a0lush and fertile rainforest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-trails\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Trails<\/strong><\/a> can be steep and slippery, so trekking poles are advised. As the route heads towards the Shira\u00a0Plateau, the trees disappear. Then the route heads into a circular pathway from Barranco to Karanga to Barafu. This route is known as the Southern Circuit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The long, strenuous approach to the <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-summit\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Summit<\/strong><\/a> is made from\u00a0the east until the crater rim known as Stella Point. Then the route is relatively flat for another hour to <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/uhuru-peak\"><strong>Uhuru Peak<\/strong><\/a>. The quick descent then follows the Mweka trail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Machame Route<\/strong> is approximately 62 km or 37 miles from\u00a0gate to gate. It is designed for physically fit people with\u00a0previous <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-trek\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Trek<\/strong><\/a> experience. But plenty of first time climbers use the route as well and do just fine. It is rated as one of the best <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-routes\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Climb Routes<\/strong><\/a> and thus is recommended very highly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MACHAME ROUTE\u00a0DETAILED ITINERARY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"605\" src=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/MACHAME-ROUTE-DETAILED-ITINERARY-1024x605.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13069\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/MACHAME-ROUTE-DETAILED-ITINERARY-1024x605.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/MACHAME-ROUTE-DETAILED-ITINERARY-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/MACHAME-ROUTE-DETAILED-ITINERARY-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/MACHAME-ROUTE-DETAILED-ITINERARY.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Kilimanjaro Machame Route<\/strong> has two itineraries, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/6-days-machame-route\"><strong>Machame Route 6 Days<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/7-days-machame-route\"><strong>Machame Route 7 Days<\/strong><\/a>. To shorten the 7-days itinerary, you can skip the night in the Karanga Valley while <strong>Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro<\/strong>. You can instead walk straight from the Barranco Huts to the Barafu Huts in one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 1: MACHAME HUT CAMP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first day trekking begins at Machame Gate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A short drive from Arusha or Moshi will bring you to the Machame route trailhead. This is where you will meet your <strong>Kilimanjaro Climbing<\/strong> crew \u2013 your\u00a0guide, porters and cook. Then after all the climbers and crew check in with the park rangers, the <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-trek\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Trek<\/strong><\/a> will finally begin. You will hike up through the montane forests, making your way up to the Machame Hut camp. By the time you arrive, your porters will have already setup your camp and tents, and dinner will be served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 1, you will hike for about 5-7 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 2: SHIRA PLATEAU<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On day two, you will rise early, pack your gear and prepare for the <strong>Kilimanjaro Hike<\/strong> ahead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a hearty breakfast, your <strong>Kilimanjaro Hiking Trips<\/strong> will continue through the forest. You can take your time, soaking in the scenery as you make your way through the moorlands. You will be treated to the first spectacular views of the Kibo peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 2, you will hike for about 4-6 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 3: BARRANCO CAMP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Day 3 on Machame route is all about climbing high and sleeping low. It\u2019s a long day but there will be lots of acclimatization. You will take acclimatization <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-hike\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Hike<\/strong><\/a> to Lava Tower for lunch and then descend down to the Barranco valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the energy to spare, you can scramble up the Lava Tower itself. The scenery will be amazing today as you will be passing through different zones of the mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 4: KARANGA CAMP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 4, you\u2019ll continue to acclimatize. Your body will slowly adjust to the high altitudes, in preparation for the upcoming <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-summit\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Summit<\/strong><\/a>. You will climb the steep Barranco Wall and then go up and down several ridges and valleys. Then you\u2019ll finally arrive at Karanga camp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the afternoon, you will likely have an acclimatization hike. On this day, you will hike for about 4-5 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 5: BARAFU CAMP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 5, you\u2019ll arrive at the final camp before the <a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/kilimanjaro-hike\"><strong>Kilimanjaro Hike<\/strong><\/a>, that is, the Barafu camp. You will likely experience some ups and downs along the ridges and valleys along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that all your kit, including warm clothes, headlamp, insulated water reserves and snacks are ready. You\u2019ll have an early supper and sleep for a few hours. When you arise at about 11:00 PM, you will start the next day\u2019s summit ascent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 6: SUMMIT NIGHT! <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Day 6 is summit day! You will start hiking at around midnight. You will have to use your headlamps to lead the way up to\u00a0Stella Point\u00a0and then to the <strong>Mount Kilimanjaro Summit<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trek up will be steep and slow. The trick is to keep moving forward, one step at a time. It takes about 6-8 hours to reach the top where you will finally see signs of Stella Point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the altitude, you will have to hike slowly. Make sure to dress warmly for the cold. After finally reaching the summit and celebrating, you will descend down to the Mweka camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DAY 7: MWEKA PARK GATE\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Day 7 is the final day on the mountain! By this time, you will be proper exhausted and only thinking about food and a hot shower. You will make the final descent through the rain forest to the Mweka Gate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, you will have a hearty lunch and say goodbye to the mountain crew assisting you. Then you\u2019ll have a drive back to Arusha for a hot shower and a celebratory dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"605\" src=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/climbing-mount-kilimanjaro-1024x605.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13070\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/climbing-mount-kilimanjaro-1024x605.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/climbing-mount-kilimanjaro-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/climbing-mount-kilimanjaro-768x453.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/climbing-mount-kilimanjaro.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jerrytanzaniatours.com\/mount-kilimanjaro-climbing\"><strong>Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro<\/strong><\/a> can be a tough job.
