MAKE YOUR DECISION

Machame Route

The Machame Route is one of the popular routes for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. It typically takes around 6 to 7 days to complete, depending on the pace and itinerary chosen. Let's discuss the difference in acclimatization between a 6-day and a 7-day tour on the Machame Route and its advantages.

  • 1. Acclimatization on the 6-day tour:
  • On a 6-day tour of the Machame Route, the acclimatization schedule is relatively fast-paced compared to longer itineraries. The ascent profile involves gaining altitude quickly, which can be challenging for some climbers. This shorter duration means less time for your body to adjust to the increasing altitude, potentially increasing the risk of altitude-related illnesses like acute mountain sickness (AMS) or high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE).

  • 2. Acclimatization on the 7-day tour:
  • A 7-day tour on the Machame Route allows for an extra day of acclimatization compared to the 6-day itinerary. This additional day is typically spent at the Karanga Campsite, situated at around 4,035 meters (13,200 feet) above sea level. The purpose of this acclimatization day is to give your body more time to adjust to the altitude before continuing the ascent.

    While the 6-day tour can still be completed successfully by experienced climbers or those who have prior experience at high altitudes, the 7-day tour offers a safer and more comfortable approach, particularly for those who may not have extensive experience with high-altitude trekking. It provides better acclimatization, higher summit success rates, and an overall more enjoyable journey. Ultimately, the choice between the two durations depends on your fitness level, previous altitude experiences, and personal preferences. It's always recommended to consult with a reputable tour operator or mountain guide who can assess your abilities and provide guidance based on your specific circumstances.
