Northern Drakensberg - Cathedral Peak
On the eastern side of Lesotho is the 3004m
"Cathedral Peak" which gives the area its name,
it lies on the eastern end of a spur of mountains which branch
off from the main wall. The peaks on this spur include the 2930m
Bell, the Outer Horn and the Inner Horn. Of all the summits Cathedral
Peak is the easiest to climb. Today this area is preserved as
a wilderness area. There is an excellent resort at the foot of
Cathedral Peak, with Hotels, a golf course, shop, recreational

"The Kingdom of Lesotho"
High up in the mountains of Southern Africa is the
unique Kingdom of Lesotho, a country not much larger
than Belgium, that provides spectacular scenery
and offer the chance to enjoy Africa's majestic
beauty, the simplicity of a mountain people and
a gentle way of life.
"The Sani Pass"
"The Sani Pass 4x4 old trading route" - Nestled
in the foothills of the Southern Drakensberg is the small village
of Himeville from where the Sani Pass 4 x 4 drive trail starts
to climb into the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho, This spectacular
Pass was once nothing more than a vague footpath used by "Bushman",
later the Pass became the main trading route for the early traders,
missionaries and travelers. The Pass climbs to an altitude of
2874 m and zig - zags upwards beneath towering cliffs, buttresses
and waterfalls. On reaching the Lesotho border post you can have
lunch at the highest pub in Africa. Today the Sani Pass
is a protected Wilderness area populated by eland, unique flora
and bird life.
