Sharing the Riches
of the Mountains

Closer to home but a world away from the stresses and strains of everyday life, Lesotho offers you a warm welcome — no matter how far away the winters may get. Explore the Maluti mountains, test your own limits on the slopes or discover the rich cultural heritage of the Basotho people — it's all here for you.

Following the diversity of Lesotho's landscapes, Afriski offers year-round activities to suit just about everybody, no matter what season it is or how much time you have. Come this winter, hit the slopes, hike and go mountain biking. And when the snow falls, it's time to strap on your skis or snowboard and head for the slopes in Kapoko Snow Park.

of Summer

As we meander excitedly into the deep, fast mountain streams, alpine flowers strung across the arrival of summer. With trails offering challenges, rewards and views in equal measure, Afriski is a much warmer summer destination for anyone who loves the outdoors — and it doesn't get any greater than the Maluti Mountains.

Discover Lesotho

Although surrounded by South Africa, Lesotho has received a distinct cultural identity thanks to the protective mountain peaks that ring the kingdom. Lesotho has the distinction of containing the highest low point of any country; you can't be at an altitude of less than 1,400m while here.

Lesotho is also one of Africa's best-known micro-democracies. If you spend time in southern Africa, you'll find that Lesotho's gentle mountain families and communities are measurably different.
