I hope you love this video. I hope it gave an accurate representation of the 7 Day Machame Route up Kilimanjaro and showed what our trips at Hike Like A Woman are like. My mission is to help humans get outside and explore with confidence, to help people push beyond their comfort zone and to show women that they can do things they may not think that they are capable of. I hope this video inspires you to set a big goal and go for it - whether it's climbing a big mountain like Kilimanjaro, or your own personal "Kili." Much love - let’s climb mountains together. 💗

I am so inspired with your courage. I can feel the joy you had all through out the hike. I am dong the Lemosho in Feb 2025. I am terrified but excited at the same time. I am not anthletic by all means. I am a hit or miss gym goer and not in the best shape. I am 61. I hope I will have half the courage you had. Thank you for sharing

Awesome recap of the best adventure I have ever been on. Rebecca, you rock. And I agree, the summit changed my life. I long everyday for a moment of the pure joy and feeling of accomplishment that we all shared at the end of each day. It was worth every dollar spent and every moment of preparation!

Kazanzuri team! We summitted 3 weeks ago (Lemosho route) and share your excitement, achievement and brutalised knees when coming right down😊. Hats off to guides porters and super chefs

@HikeLikeAWoman Месяц назад

Yes! They were all so amazing. Congrats on the summit. What's your next big adventure?

Congratulations to all of you! I depart for my trek on 4 September. I'm going solo and joining a group. So so nervous now, but also excited.. this video has helped, thank you!

@Clairebear785 Месяц назад

I did it 2 weeks ago, I went with a friend as part of a larger group but there were several solo people in our group and everyone had the best time - sometimes I wasn't even sitting near my friend at dinner or walking with her during the day! I'm sure you'll get a great group and have an amazing time - it's an unreal experience. Perfectly normal to feel nervous or apprehensive along the way so if you have a solo tent to yourself, don't feel like a failure if you get a bit emotional or second thoughts along the way - have a little cry and you'll be good to go again :) best of luck! P.S. I would bring some sort of nasal spray or rinse with you & throat lozenges - there can be an awful lot of dust when coming down from summit and we all had gross runny noses & coughs from it, I had lozenges but def wish I had something to clear my nose out afterwards!

@HikeLikeAWoman Месяц назад

You're going to have such an amazing time! Best of luck with the final preparations :) Can't wait to hear how it goes!

@HikeLikeAWoman Месяц назад

Yes! So much dust coming off the summit. I wasn't prepared for that - thanks for sharing that tip :)

@GardenHands 2 месяца назад

Great video! I'll be heading to Kili in a month with my parents, husband and friend and hope to make just as many memories as you clearly did. You're attitude and motivation to live life to its fullest is so motivating! Congrats to you and everyone in your party!

@HikeLikeAWoman Месяц назад

Thank you! Have a great climb. Let me know how it goes :)

@HikeLikeAWoman 2 месяца назад

So thankful for your friendship and that you shared this experience with all of us on the trip!

@nikkivandermerwe5992 Месяц назад

Thank you for your fun video! We’re planning the trip for June next year to celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday. It was so good to see some “older” women managing it - gives me hope!!! ❤

@Clairebear785 Месяц назад

I just did it two weeks ago (I'm 38) and the fittest person in our group was a 70 year old woman who could have run rings around us all! You guys will do great - I would recommend going as slow as you can from the beginning (while still making progress) because it will really stand to you the higher you go, and also use your trek poles as any little bit of strength saved will help too. And also, try to remember to keep slow when just moving around camp, you will find that getting up in the night to go to the bathroom has your heart racing when you get back and lie down but it's very normal. Summit night can be tough mentally so I definitely recommend having some mantras or tunes in your head to keep going - I kept repeating "you're not stopping unless someone stops you". With the amount of time you have, just try to get as much practice walking for several hours for a few days in a row - that was tough-ish for me as I don't live near places I could get to easily for that. Stairmaster & incline treadmill was my replacement for a lot of it. Best of luck to you both :) P.S. I would bring some sort of nasal spray or rinse with you & throat lozenges - there can be an awful lot of dust when coming down from summit and we all had gross runny noses & coughs from it, I had lozenges but def wish I had something to clear my nose out afterwards!

What a fun way to celebrate a birthday! You're going to love it. Our group had woman aged 32-70 and it was amazing watching everyone climb the mountain regardless of age. So much fun!

@HikeLikeAWoman Месяц назад

"You're not stopping unless someone stops you" - what a great mantra to get you to the summit and I totally agree about going slowly everywhere, did you notice when you got home how busy and chaotic things seemed? I'm trying to be pole, pole in my every day life now but it sure is hard!

@Clairebear785 Месяц назад

@@HikeLikeAWoman yes, a few things have changed for me since coming back for sure! I'm trying to be a lot more intentional with my time - have set an app timer for Instagram for example for max 1 hour a day, when I hit it then the app is blocked until the next day, it's really shown me how much time I was wasting before! Trying to be intentionally grateful for a lot of basic things that I have such as running water and huge varieties of food etc. I am also making an effort to reduce my consumerism - I really was mindlessly buying things I didn't need or even really want. A life changing trip for sure - so much appreciation for all that I achieved on the mountain and all that I have in my life :)

That trip looks absolutely amazing. I’m so tempted to sign up for next year.
