Step into the Mountain Kingdom
A land where every view touches the sky. From misty peaks and pony trails to crystal rivers and villages perched high above the clouds, Lesotho captures the rugged beauty and quiet strength of Africa’s highlands
It is the only country in the world entirely above 1 000 metres in elevation, no matter where you stand, you are in the mountains.
Known as The Kingdom in the Sky, it often sees snow in winter while the rest of southern Africa basks in sun.
Traditional Basotho blankets are more than clothing, they tell stories of heritage and pride.
The mighty Maletsunyane Falls near Semonkong is one of Africa’s highest single-drop waterfalls.
Lesotho’s ponies are world-famous for their endurance, gracefully navigating steep, rocky terrain where vehicles cannot go.
