Machame Route
We usually recommend the Machame Route because it has a high success rate for reaching the summit. This route is excellent for acclimatization and incredibly scenic, passing through all the mountain’s diverse ecosystems. As a general rule, longer routes offer a higher chance of success. Therefore, we recommend more days if your time and budget allow. This is because you’ll have more time to acclimatize by climbing high and then descending to sleep each night. Additionally, there are more opportunities for rest with shorter walking days before the summit push.
