Getting There
-
Car
If you are traveling by car, head towards the town of Moshi, which is a hub for Kilimanjaro trekking. From Moshi, take the B1 road towards Arusha. After approximately 30 km, look for signs to the Machame Gate, which is the primary access point for climbing Kilimanjaro. Once you reach Machame Gate, you will need to pay the park entrance fee (approximately $70 per person for non-residents). After your registration, follow the trekking route to Barranco Wall, which is roughly a 4-5 hour hike from the Machame Camp.
-
Public Transportation
To reach Barranco Wall using public transportation, take a daladala (shared minibus) from Moshi to Machame. The fare is about 2,000 TZS (Tanzanian Shillings). Once you arrive at Machame village, you may need to hire a guide or join a trekking group to access the Machame Gate. The entrance fee to Kilimanjaro National Park is approximately $70 per person for non-residents. After entering the park, follow the trek to Barranco Wall, which will take around 4-5 hours.
-
Guided Tour
Consider booking a guided tour that includes transportation from your accommodation in Moshi directly to the Machame Gate. Most tour companies will handle all logistics, including entrance fees, meals, and a guide. The cost of a guided tour can range from $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the package and duration of your trek. This option is highly recommended for first-time climbers as it provides a safer and more organized experience.
