- Kilimanjaro, the world's tallest free standing mountain, one of the seven summits and Africa's highest point. Towering over the plains of East Africa, this huge beauty keeps attracting climbers from all over the world. I returned to this mountain, this time taking on the Machame route, also known as the Whiskey route. This video provides a detailed documentation of our experience during our 6 day climb. I hope you get to enjoy it. Feel free to leave a comment on what you think about the video or the climb itself. Thank you...

I was there at the Uhuru Peak on 15. feb 1989. There were only 80 climbers at the easiest "Whisky route" on that day...so no tent villages. We slept in cosy huts. I believe they are still there. And above all; the whole peak was covered with snow and ice.
I have kept in my mind the swahili words: POLE POLE. It is good for your life in many occasions.
Wow! 1989 is a long time ago! Congratulations. The huts are now on the Marangu (Cocacola) route, at the Whiskey route you just camp in tents. The mountain nowadays gets so many visitors, even on the Marangu route you still find people camping as the huts are usually full on most times. Snow and ice have reduced significantly over the years, the mountain has changed a lot... Thanks for taking the journey again on this video..
Very good video and commentary. Too old at 74 to make it up one of the Seven so I'll climb it virtually through your video! Cheers!
@@fbagbey thanks a lot for passing by and for the positive feedback. You are not too old by the way, there have been older climbers who got to the summit.. You could try some day.. Thanks again..
I also climbed Kilimanjaro in februari 2024. We did it in 7days and had an amazing time at at the mountain! So lovely to watch this video and see everthing again.
Glad to hear you had an amazing time at the mountain and congratulations too. Thank you for watching and for the positive feedback..
My brother, a friend and I climbed this route in Oct 1974. We and our guides were the only ones on the summit that day. A different time.
Wow! 1974! Must have been extremely rewarding climbing at that time. I'm sure the mountain looked extremely different.. As you see, today, more than 100 people summit Kilimanjaro every day.
Wow,.i av enjoyed watching it.❤
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the poaitive feedback

I hope those porters are paid well coz that's very tiring
They are, and climbers are encouraged to also tip them as per their ability.
Kj to the world
Thanks moran.. AfricanMoran to the world too!
Wow that's amazing how much did it cost?
@@user-qf6rv2bn3y thanks for the comment. Costs vary depending on route, number of days and where you are coming from and company you are using to climb. On average Kilimanjaro climb can cost anywhere between 700-1500 USD.
Nice how much it cost overall yo climb kili?
It may cost anywhere between 1500 USD to 2500 USD depending on tour company you are using, number of days on the mountain and extra services you may need from the basic package..
Was looking for this comment, interested but the dollars are too many for a hustler yawah😃
@@patriciaLec That's how it is currently, but slightly less than that amount for East African citizens..
Do people shower?
They provide you with some little warm water to wipe yourself off but you can get enough water for a complete shower at extra cost, as it needs to be carried all the way..
@@kiarieexploreske i saw rivers and lakes.. are climbers allowed to use that water?
@@Keniakento yes it is allowed but the water has to be used at camp, so it is fetched and carried by the porters.
