Machame Gate to Machame Camp
Kilimanjaro National Park - At 9am, leave Arusha for Machame Gate, where you will meet our porters, guides and cooks that will spend the next six days trekking with you to Uhuru Peak, the roof of Africa. The drive through coffee farms and villages to Machame Gate takes about 1.5 hours. After arriving, wait at the gate while we register your climb and the porters and guides make final preparations. Hike to Machame Camp via the mystical, moss-covered trees of Kilimanjaro’s cloud forest. As the forest thins later in the hike, take in the heathers, tall grasses and wildflowers. If the weather is clear, enjoy the striking views of your ultimate destination, Kibo Peak. Our porters and cooks will go ahead and prepare the campsite before you arrive.

This is our second most sought-after trail. It provides effortless approach to the trailhead, diverse landscapes, and shows an upward gradient towards the west. Amongst our mountain staff, Barranco Camp, the third campsite on this route, is a particular favorite. It’s also the most favorite route for camping, attracting many fellow mountaineers. We pride ourselves on our top-notch services, journey plotting, and high-quality gear to ensure a smooth journey to the summit. Initially, we were a company dedicated solely to Kilimanjaro hiking, and for nearly two decades, we have successfully led ascents on Kili and Meru. Mountaineering assistance continues to be a crucial aspect of our operation. With our extensive past in organizing hikes, we have the knowledge to ensure your successful and safe climb to the summit, and to guarantee a pleasurable and satisfying trek to get there.
