Description

Skiing in Africa? Yeah, it’s real—and it’s happening at Afriski Mountain Resort in Lesotho, the only ski resort in sub-Saharan Africa, perched over 10,000 feet high. Snow’s made locally to keep slopes fresh, drawing over 1,400 skiers a day, with crowds expected to grow. First-timers are learning to glide amid the laughs and falls, guided by solid instructors. Beyond the slopes, soak in local culture with traditional sausage rolls, Maluti Lager, and iconic Basotho blankets—now even on ski gear. This unexpected winter wonderland is putting Lesotho on the map, one run at a time.
