The rock faces and peaks of Lesotho offers a wealth of opportunities to adventurous rock climbers and abseilers with suitable experience and equipment.
Maletsunyane Falls, near Semonkong, is the setting for the world’s longest commercial single-drop abseil. The 204-metre descent alongside one of Africa’s tallest single-drop waterfalls is a truly breathtaking experience, one that frequently leaves you suspended against the rock face with a fine spray blowing into your face. The views to the verdant gorge below are sensational too. A good for heights is a prerequisite, but despite the length of the descent, no experience is required, since advance training is given to all abseilers on a smaller cliff.
