About This Route
Kilimanjaro is the roof of Africa: a free-standing volcano rising 5,895 metres out of the Tanzanian plain, climbed by around 40,000 trekkers a year. The Machame — the 'Whiskey Route' — is the classic ascent: through rainforest to Shira's moorland plateau, the acclimatisation puzzle of Lava Tower and Barranco's great wall, then the midnight push from Barafu to watch dawn break from Uhuru Peak.
A free-standing mountain makes the most dramatic terrain model there is — the entire massif in relief, glaciated summit crater and all, with your route spiralling to the top.
The definitive memento of a once-in-a-lifetime climb, and a superb gift for anyone who's made it. Printed in the UK, customised with name and summit date, free UK shipping.
