Is a holiday rental in Maseru worth it?
A holiday apartment in Maseru offers you the perfect combination of independence and comfort. Enjoy Impressive nature and experience Maseru like a local – with your own retreat after an action-packed day.
Maseru is the capital of Lesotho, the kingdom in the sky — the only country in the world that is completely above 1,000 meters. The city on the Caledon River, at the border with South Africa, is the starting point for one of the last great adventures in southern Africa.
Maseru itself is modest: a lively market town with the bustling Setsoto Design Centre (Basotho crafts), the Catholic Our Lady of Victories Cathedral, and the Royal Palace. The Thetsane Market offers local crafts and the iconic Basotho blankets, which are worn throughout Lesotho.
Lesotho's magic begins outside the city: The Maloti Mountains with peaks over 3,000 m offer spectacular trekking, pony treks through remote mountain villages, and in winter, snow on African soil — yes, you can ski in Africa (Afriski Resort, 3,222 m).
The Semonkong Waterfall (Maletsunyane Falls, 192 m — one of the highest single drops in Africa), the remote Sani Pass plateau, and the dinosaur footprints at Moyeni make Lesotho one of the most exciting off-the-beaten-path destinations in Africa.
What are the highlights of Maseru?
192 m high waterfall at Semonkong — one of the highest single drops in Africa: abseiling and pony trek to the base possible.
Skiing in Africa at 3,222 m: Lesotho's ski resort in the Maloti Mountains — surreal and real at the same time.
Legendary 4x4 pass from South Africa to the Lesotho plateau (2,874 m): spectacular serpentine roads and the highest pub in Africa at the top.
The iconic Basotho blankets are visible everywhere: a cultural symbol and practical protection against the mountain cold.
200 million-year-old dinosaur tracks at Moyeni/Quthing: freely accessible and remarkably well preserved.
