About this experience
Machame is a popular route that summits Kilimanjaro via Stella Point. It's a camping route and we favour it as the quickest and easiest route for the average climber. The best time to climb Kilimanjaro is during the short rains (October and November) or the 'shoulder season' (March and June). The peak or dry season (July to the end of September) is extremely busy and cold, and there's not much snow at all. It also gets dusty and windy during the dry season.
