Set amidst an altitude of over 1,000 metres, Lesotho is aptly known as the “Kingdom in the Sky” and offers an incredible holiday full of adventure and fun leisure pursuits.
National Park Excursions
For those who love hiking and birdwatching, excursions to the Sehlabathebe and Ts’ehlanyane national parks from hotels in Lesotho are not to be missed. Set amidst idyllic grasslands and inspiring rock formations, these sites are also popular for some guided treks on Basotho ponies!
Gambling Fun
If it’s a night of high-stakes or casual gambling you are after, then you can spend some time at a casino in Lesotho. Featuring around 14 table games and numerous gaming machines, the onsite casino at a Maseru property of Avani Hotels & Resorts is one place where you can enjoy such excitement.
Ancient Rock Art
The country is home to ancient rock art which is well worth witnessing first-hand and on your excursions, you may come across dinosaur footprints too! Amongst the well-known attractions in Lesotho where you will find rock art are the Liphofung Historical Site and the caves of Tsatsane Valley.
Outdoor Activities
Intrepid travellers looking for some action-packed outdoor escapades have much more to look forward to including skiing (from June to August) in the mountains! Mountain biking at Lake Letsie, taking a 4×4 drive at the Sani Pass and abseiling at Maletsunyane Falls are amongst the other activities that offer thrills galore.
