1. Giorno 1Arrival in Moshi

2. Giorno 2Machame Gate to Machame Camp

   After a short drive from Moshi and registration at Machame Gate (1,829 m), you climb through thick montane rainforest. The path is steep in places and the trees are full of birds and monkeys. Camp sits where the forest starts to thin.
