Machame route end Jan 2021
Question
Hi, I’m planning to go for the Machame route end Jan 2021. Would I need crampons? Is this a lot tougher than the treks in Nepal? I did Annapurna circuit in Dec two years ago.kinda worried about the rapid ascent and the long summit night. I can’t handle cold that well!

You definitely will want to pack for cold weather as Kili is unpredictable. You can bring the crampons with you and then during your briefing your guide can advise you if you need to bring them during the trek, if not you can leave them at the hotel. It is a tough descent down so you should be prepared. Crampons are not commonly used on Kili but some clients have used in the past.
Best Regards!
