Lying seven hours' walk from Barranco and perched at an altitude of 4600 m, Barafu is the last place you can seek refuge along the Machame route before the final ascent of Kilimanjaro.

My suggestion

If you've reached here, your mind will already be set on the roof of Africa, 1300 m above. The only thing you should do is rest and regain your strength ready for the seven-hour walk you'll be undertaking the following night.
