The Machame Route, known as the “Whiskey Route”, is one of the most scenic and popular routes on Mount Kilimanjaro. It offers diverse landscapes—rainforest, moorland, alpine desert, and glaciers—with a gradual ascent profile, making it an excellent choice for trekkers seeking high summit success rates.
