Climb Kilimanjaro with Intrepid Travel


Climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa, with Intrepid Travel...

Kilimanjaro Machame Route
Trek to the peak of Mt Kilimanjaro, Catch the sunrise over Africa, Inspect incredible glaciers, Experience 360 degree views from scenic campsites, Look out for black-and-white colobus monkeys in the misty lowland forests, Climb steep ridges to gaze on snow-capped mountains.

This classic trek is the most popular route, and the only one serviced by mountain huts to keep you well protected from the elements. It’s the most direct route to the summit and covers the 67 km trail in just 5 days (or sometimes 6 if you decide to take some extra time to acclimatise). Although it can be busy, the route is well maintained and is a fabulous trek to the spectacular summit of Mt Kilimanjaro.
