Itinerary
Moshi - Machame Gate - Machame Camp
Kilimanjaro
Rising (ft): 56,000ft / 1,830m to 10,200ft / 3,100m | Stretch: 11 km | Hiking time: 5–7 hours | Climatic habitat: Rain Forest | Meal plan: Lunch and Dinner Travel from Moshi to Machame Gate, where the mountain trek begins. After completing the required gate arrangements, the route enters the rainforest and continues upward toward Machame Camp. The day's walk introduces the first section of the Machame Route while allowing gradual progress into the mountain environment.
Machame Camp
Machame Camp to Shira Camp
Kilimanjaro
Rising (ft): 10,200ft / 3,100m to 12,600ft / 3,840m | Stretch: 9 km | Hiking time: 4–6 hours | Climatic habitat: Moorland | Meal plan: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner The trail continues from Machame Camp toward Shira Camp, leaving much of the rainforest behind as the landscape changes into moorland. The route gains elevation steadily and provides a transition into a more open mountain environment. Shira Camp becomes the overnight base before the following stage of the climb.
Shira Camp
Shira Camp to Barranco Camp
Kilimanjaro
Hiking time: 5–7 hours | Rising: 12,600ft / 3,840m to 12,700ft / 3,860m | Stretch: 15 km | Climatic habitat: Semi-desert | Meal plan: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Leave Shira Camp and continue across the semi-desert landscape toward Barranco Camp. The day covers a longer distance while the overall camp elevation changes only slightly. The route continues through increasingly high-altitude terrain and positions the trek for the next stage toward Barafu Camp.
Barranco Camp
Barranco Camp to Barafu Camp
Kilimanjaro
Hiking time: 6–8 hours | Rising: 4000m / 13,000ft to 4700m / 15,350ft | Stretch: 9 km | Climatic habitat: Alpine Desert | Meal plan: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner From Barranco Camp, the trek proceeds toward Barafu Camp through the alpine desert zone. The route gains considerable elevation during the day. Barafu Camp is the high-altitude campsite before the summit attempt, making this an important part of the six-day Machame Route itinerary.
Barafu Camp
Barafu to Uhuru Peak to Mweka Camp
Kilimanjaro
Rising (ft): 4700m / 15,350ft to 5895m / 19,343ft down to 3090m / 10,150ft | Stretch: 6 km up / 13 km down | Hiking time: 5–7 hours up / 5–6 hours down | Climatic habitat: Arctic | Meal plan: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner The summit day begins from Barafu Camp with the climb toward Uhuru Peak at 5,895m. After reaching the summit area, the route descends toward Mweka Camp. This demanding day includes both the summit ascent and a substantial descent, requiring careful pacing throughout the trek.
Mweka Camp
Mweka Camp to Moshi to Arusha

Descent (ft): 3090m / 10,150ft to 1680m / 5,500ft | Stretch: 10 km | Hiking time: 3–4 hours | Climatic habitat: Rain Forest | Meal plan: Breakfast and Lunch Continue descending from Mweka Camp through the rainforest toward Machame Gate. After completing the mountain section, continue to Moshi. On arrival in Moshi, you will be transferred to Arusha for the night stay, preparing for the following day's Ngorongoro Crater safari. The mountain itinerary therefore ends.
