Habari Adventure leads treks up the Machame route. It’s a beautiful, the most popular and busiest route overall. It allows you to experience the southwest and south east side of the mountain since you go up one way and down another. This is also referred to as the “Whisky Route” better suited to more adventurous hikers.
Despite being a tough climb compared to the Marangu Route, the Machame route has one of the highest summit success rates given the topography of the route which allows climbers to “trek high and sleep low” hence making it a more favorable route for acclimatization. Machame route is steeper and climbers walk longer distance while Coca-Cola route is a gradual ascent. Machame is usually done in 6 or 7 days via southern circuit and finally ascending to the summit via the east facing Mweka route to the crater rim at Stella point. Also it is quite scenic and rugged. Best done in 7 days.
