Maluti Mountains

The imposing Maluti Mountain range forms part of the Drakensberg system on the border of South Africa and Lesotho. It spans 100km and connects the Free State in South Africa with the Butha-Buthe District in Lesotho. The Maluti Mountains get their name from the word 'Loti,' which is the currency of Lesotho.


These rolling hills, jagged slopes, and towering peaks offer tourists a unique playground. Whether you want to stroll around the slopes or hit it up with some gear and maps, the Maluti Mountains will not disappoint.


From June to August, you can ski at Afriski. This resort is located in the mountains of Maluti and is the only ski resort in Lesotho. Note that snow can be sparse during winter, and snow generators can fill in gaps.


Alternatively, you can also choose to cycle on the trails to explore the peaks and valleys of the breathtaking mountain scenery. Hiking and picnicking are also an experience you should try here.
