Top 5 Mountain Activities in Lesotho
- Hiking: Pull on your boots and head to the hills to explore Lesotho’s mountains. The views are spectacular and you’re more likely to encounter a waterfall or San Bushman rock art than another human being.
- Meet the Basotho: Take a walk through Malealea village and leave with a bevvy of new friends. Curious kids and friendly adults will proudly show you around and introduce you to their traditions.
- Pony Trekking: If you prefer four legs to two, then there’s nowhere better to get on a horse (or pony) and ride than Lesotho. Set out with a guide to explore the countryside on a short or overnight trek.
- Explore Canyons: Take a hike to the stunning Pitseng Canyon. Walk under overhanging cliff faces and past cascading rockpools where, if it’s warm enough, you can take a dip.
- Wildlife Spotting: Lesotho boasts some spectacular wildlife-spotting opportunities. Keep an eye out for rare birds, vultures, meerkats, jackals, mountain reedbuck and baboons.
