Les Tour
Hikers on a marked trail in the Lesotho highlands

Lesotho's paths are well marked, so you can focus on the climb and the view, not on finding your way.

Hiking here isn't a solo sport. Local hiking clubs walk these mountains all year and welcome visitors, so you're often on the trail alongside people who know it by heart. Routes range from an easy morning walk to multi-day treks that test even strong hikers — there's a route to match your fitness level. Some people spend a week or two working toward the highest peaks. Others just want an afternoon by a waterfall. Either way, the mountain sets the pace.
