Another must-see attraction is the Thabana Ntlenyana Mountain. At 3,482 metres (11,424 feet), it is the highest mountain in Lesotho and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

For those who love to hike, the Mohale's Hoek region is a paradise of pristine valleys, rushing rivers and snow-capped peaks. There are plenty of hiking trails to choose from, including the challenging Malealea Loop Trek.

If you're looking for something a little more laid back, then why not visit one of Lesotho's many beautiful valleys? The Makhaleng Valley is a great choice, with its rolling hills, tranquil streams and abundance of wildlife.
