Itinerary description

|
Show original
The Drakensberg Mountains spread out in an arc and surround the Kingdom of Lesotho to the east. It is also known as "the kingdom of heaven" because most of the territory is above two thousand meters and it is the country with the highest lowest point in the world, at 1,400 meters above sea level. We arrived in Lesotho through the mythical pass "Sani Pass" Vertigo!
Ascent from the Lesotho border to Hudgson's peak north face 3251 mts. The entire route runs through the mountains, there is no road, no signs, the guide takes us.
The views from the top are impressive, shame it was foggy.
