Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro 2019 | Machame Route

Hey guys! I put together a compilation video of my recent trek Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro 2019 on the Machame Route. We did a 7 day trek, and it was life changing, completely challenging and one of the most amazing things I have every done. In this video you will see a piece of everyday on the journey. I endured, waves of altitude sickness, bitter cold, and changing weather straight to the summit. Come check it out!
I did this trip with an incredible organization called UGO travel for change. I highly recommend a trip with UGO to any amazing women who want to change their lives.

Weldone for making it to the summit. I bet its an experience that stays with you forever. I'm doing the same route in June as 2022 and don't really know how my body is going to hold. Thanks for sharing.

[@leiacha2482]

Great job, thank you. I spent my 72nd birthday at the Mt. Everest Base Camp in May, I been thinking about 83rd birthday on the Inca Trail next year. But I been thinking about what would be more exciting for me and next year is the only chance before i really get too old for this, then I decided to Kill The Hill. I am just wondering what is the best month to do this hike. I live by the ocean in Southern California, not too well with cold.

[@PetrenaSchell]

Wow!!! You are amazing!! I love that you just go for it. June - October are the warmest months to climb Kili. And next to that it would be January - March.😊 I am SO excited for you, you are going to Kill The Hill!! Inca trail is definitely on my bucket list too.💯

[@reginanovy7225]

Thank you for sharing such an amazing video. 🥰

[@frostedcoke]

Love your mantra, I just may have to borrow it. By the way tears are cleansing, they keep you going forward.

[@PetrenaSchell]

So true!❤🙌

[@yleniafornari8275]

Hi Petrena, I am planning to climb Kili in September 2020. I want walk the Machame route. I want to ask you in which mounth you have climbed it and if it is so frozen sleeping in the tent. Ciao, Ylenia

[@PetrenaSchell]

Hi Ylenia🙋🏼‍♀️ I hiked it in January and it was quite cold then. Especially at the summit. At night we had to wear 3 layers of clothes to stay warm. But it was manageable. You may have warmer weather in September.😊

[@mayyannx3]

Were you in very good shape prior to the climb? I began running a few months ago and can now run around 8-10 km, but I don't feel like I'm in good enough shape for the climb I was planning to do this August. Really debating what to do...

[@s.roberts3839]

Still think you would've got up there faster HAD you drunk the AUSSIE milo. Lol. Still looks great, well done Petrena 👍🇦🇺👍

[@PetrenaSchell]

Hahaha, the milo is the answer to everything!!🤣

[@s.roberts3839]

@@PetrenaSchell haha you know it. Hey, rub some on ya shoes & it'll bring you to Australia. To easy Petrena 🤣👍

[@sandyrpod4439]

Whats the water situation? Do the porters carry drinking and washing up water for everyone?

[@mubeenkp1875]

Thanks for amazing video I want to know 1 how much for hiking Kilimanjaro 2 Do you want to carry all camping stuffs like tents 3 Have you faced any difficulty in hiking 4 Does I need previous experience with hiking?

[@PetrenaSchell]

Thank you! You don't need precious experience. Although going to higher altitudes before hand would help your body acclimatize better. I also did a video about what I used to help my body adapt to altitude. You don't have to carry your stuff, they have porters for that. The price varies depending on the company and time of year. However, I put the link to the company I used in the description box, and they were amazing!!! Definitely chat to them.

[@sushmajanakraj]

Who was your trek operator? Which company?

[@PetrenaSchell]

We we with Safari to Summit, they are amazing!! Their link is in the description of this video.😁
