Proceed to Mohale Dam - which is a rock-fill dam in Lesotho. It is part of the Lesotho Water Project, which will eventually include 5 large dams in remote rural areas of Lesotho and South Africa.

The potential of the project was identified by the South African Civil Engineer Ninham Shand (now Aurecon) as a possible means to supplement the water supply to South Africa. The World Bank arranged for a treaty between the then-Apartheid government of South Africa and its much smaller neighbor, Lesotho, allowing the execution of the project to proceed.

With little luck, we will do a boat cruise ride (Boat Tour). Lunch at Mohale excluding soft drinks at maximum price including mineral water. After lunch depart back to Maseru, on the way back we will visit Thaba Bosiu, arriving back at Botleng Guest House at 16h00.
