Lesotho's formidable terrain is surrounded by the sheer walls of the Drakensberg and Maluti mountains. The local and friendly Basotho residents are one of the few mountain peoples in Africa and have developed a rich culture, often in isolated villages. The entire country of Lesotho lies 1000m above sea level and boasts Thabana-Ntlenyana, at 3482m, the highest peak in Africa south of Kilimanjaro.
