FIELD TRIP TO THE OUTSKIRTS OF MASERU The Daytrip will be a one-day short trip around the outskirts of Maseru meant to give the international visitors a feel of this tiny Mountain Kingdom. Visitors will first go to the National University of Lesotho, situated some 30 km South East of Maseru. Then they will move to Metolong dam, not only to see the dam but enjoy the scenery of Lesotho’s foothills. On the way back, they will stop at Thaba Bosiu Cultural Village, to enjoy a braai and then come back to Maseru. |
