About this experience
The best and most popular 6 days Kilimanjaro climbing via machame route.
This 6-day Kilimanjaro climbing tour package via machame route is the best mountain package for those who have only six days, the Machame route is the best choice because of its acclimatization profile. Compared to other 6-day routes, the Machame route exposes the climber to higher elevations quicker (day 3) which kick-starts the body's adaptation to altitude. However, this route requires a person in good shape to be able to tackle the challenging elevation gains and losses. The 6-day Kilimanjaro climbing via Machame variation is a difficult route. In particular, day 4 combined with day 5 makes for a very hard schedule. Day 4 is a full day of hiking from Barranco to Barafu. Then after dinner and a partial night's sleep, the very long and strenuous summit day begins around midnight. The 6-day Machame route requires 19-24 hours of demanding walking, at extremely high elevations, with only 4-6 hours of sleep.
