Located at an altitude of 2,835 meters, Machame Camp marks the first major stop on the Machame Route after a day of trekking through lush rainforest. The camp is located in a clearing surrounded by tall trees and dense flora, providing a peaceful location to recover after a strenuous journey. Trekkers often arrive at Machame Camp in the late afternoon, with tents already set up by the support team. The evening at Machame Camp typically involves settling into your tent, enjoying a hot meal prepared by the camp cook, and relaxing in the cool mountain air. The camp’s elevation offers the first real taste of higher altitude, making it an important point for acclimatization. As night falls, the temperature drops significantly, and trekkers can often witness the forest canopy shrouded in mist, adding to the ethereal beauty of the camp. This peaceful setting serves as the perfect end to the first day’s hike, allowing trekkers to recharge for the journey ahead.
