At 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the tallest freestanding mountain in the world. This dormant volcano is one of the Seven Summits that every mountaineer and alpine climber has on their bucket list, and the best part is that almost anyone can climb it with some determination and a professional guide. Located in Tanzania, the iconic Kilimanjaro boasts spectacular landscapes, diverse wildlife, and several historical sites. Machame, also known as the “Whiskey Route” due to being just slightly more difficult than the “Coca-Cola Route”, is one of the easiest and the most scenic routes up Kilimanjaro. Trekking through grasslands, tropical rainforest, alpine meadows, and moorlands, you’ll reach snow and ice in a matter of days. The route allows you to acclimatize to the high altitudes, making the summit success rates relatively high.
