  1. The highest peak of The Kingdom of Lesotho, a landlocked country and enclave completely surrounded by the Republic of South Africa, is Thabana Ntlenyana, which literally means "Beautiful Little Mountain." It is also the tallest peak in southern Africa (south of Kilimanjaro). Thabana Ntlenyana is located on the Drakensberg mountain range near Sani Pass, a beautiful mountain pass that serves as a well-known entry point into Lesotho from South Africa's Natal Drakensberg Park.


    Lesotho cannot be compared to South Africa due to its height. It does, however, receive the greatest rain throughout the summer (thunderstorms are quite common in the Drakensberg mountains during this period). Summer temperatures can reach 30 °C (86 °F) while winter temperatures can drop to -18 °C (-0.4 °F). Snow is prevalent between May and September, while higher summits might get snow all year.

  2. Njesuthi (Njesuthi) is a mountain (class T - Hypsographic) in South Africa (general), South Africa (Africa), and South Africa (Africa) with the region font code Africa/Middle East. It is situated at a height of 3,408 meters above sea level. At 3,408 meters, Njesuthi or Injesuthi Dome is one of the tallest summits in the Drakensberg mountain range. It lies on the border between Lesotho and the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal. Also, less than 1.5km away on the border is the taller Mafadi peak at 3,450 meters (11,319 ft).


    Injasuti, Injsuti, Njesuthi, Nyesuthi, and eNjesuthi are all variations of Njesuthi.

  3. Mont-aux-Sources is a mountain in Southern Africa that forms part of the Drakensberg Range. It is largely in Lesotho, with a small portion in South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal and Free State provinces.


    The Sentinel Car Park at Witsieshoek provides access to the top via chain ladders.


    The mountain was dubbed Mont-aux-Sources ("Mountain of Sources") by two French Protestant missionaries in 1836 because it was a watershed for the Orange (south), Vaal (north), Tugela (east), and other rivers. It is a basalt plateau at an elevation of around 10,000 feet (3,050 m) and is largely located inside Lesotho. The plateau rises eastward to a peak of 10,823 feet (3,299 meters) along the Lesotho–KwaZulu/Natal boundary. At the western boundary of South Africa's Royal Natal National Park, that top and other neighboring summits of the plateau's edge form vast, high cliffs overlooking KwaZulu/Natal.


    Elevation: 3,282 m (10,768 ft)

    Prominence: 54 m (177 ft)
