The sinewy mountains around Liphofung rise in hues of ochre and snow-white during the winter.
They conceal the fascinating historic sites of the Moteng Valley, which have yielded evidence of human habitation in these parts of Lesotho since at least the Stone Age.
Today, visitors can come and explore the unique history of the Liphofung Caves, where a well-rounded visitor’s center now offers an insight into the old Basotho kings and the ins and outs of traditional Basotho craft culture.
There are also oodles of walking routes in the area, and some good campsites to boot.
