Also known as the Whiskey route, the Machame route is scenically stunning with a varied ecosystem. The Machame route approaches Mt Kilimanjaro from the south, beginning with a short drive from Mochi to Machame gate. Its path leads climbers through the rainforest of Shira plateau. Many of Mt Kilimanjaro’s routes converge here, then the Machame route turns east and traverses underneath Mt Kilimanjaro’s southern ice field on a path known as the Southern Circuit before summiting from Barafu.
