Closer to home but a world away from the stresses and strains of everyday life, Lesotho offers you a warm welcome — no matter how far away the winters may get. Explore the Maluti mountains, test your own limits on the slopes or discover the rich cultural heritage of the Basotho people — it's all here for you.
Following the diversity of Lesotho's landscapes, Afriski offers year-round activities to suit just about everybody, no matter what season it is or how much time you have. Come this winter, hit the slopes, hike and go mountain biking. And when the snow falls, it's time to strap on your skis or snowboard and head for the slopes in Kapoko Snow Park.

As we meander excitedly into the deep, fast mountain streams, alpine flowers strung across the arrival of summer. With trails offering challenges, rewards and views in equal measure, Afriski is a much warmer summer destination for anyone who loves the outdoors — and it doesn't get any greater than the Maluti Mountains.
Why fly overseas when you can enjoy the same skiing and snowboarding action and form and make ends with a stay up-beat winter season at Afriski? Everything you'll need is here on site, including slopes, ski lifts and the opportunity for you to develop your skills and improve on your all-round snow skills.
Afriski is just 4½ hours' drive from Johannesburg or Pretoria. We assist and inform so that you are more prepared and check out the weather reports before you head there.
Although surrounded by South Africa, Lesotho has received a distinct cultural identity thanks to the protective mountain peaks that ring the kingdom. Lesotho has the distinction of containing the highest low point of any country; you can't be at an altitude of less than 1,400m while here.
Lesotho is also one of Africa's best-known micro-democracies. If you spend time in southern Africa, you'll find that Lesotho's gentle mountain families and communities are measurably different.
