$2200 per person

Climbing the 6 days Machame route can be done in a minimum of six days (five nights) on the mountain. However, it is most often preferred to do seven days (six nights), for a better altitude acclimatization schedule. The success rate is significantly higher when using the seven day route. With an approximation of 62 km/ 37 miles from gate to gate. It is designed for physically fit people with some hiking experience, but plenty of first time trekker use the route as well and do just fine.
