Experience the splendour of Kili with an extra day to acclimatize on your way to the summit of Africa’s highest peak. Considered by many to be the most scenic path to the summit, the Machame boasts different routes to the summit and back. Known as the “Whiskey Route,” this path leads you through magnificent forests to gain a ridge leading through moorland to the Shira Plateau. It offers great scenery beneath the glaciated precipices of the Southern Icefields before summiting from the higher Barafu Camp. Camp along the route with support from local guides and porters. As a world leader in Kili treks, we’ll take you to new heights in adventure!
