Ha Lejone Village / Katse Dam | Lesotho
The festive season is upon us
Not so long ago we were in the snow and then rather quickly through the spring – even though the spring seemed to retain some qualities of winter with a snow fall early in October. And now summer is upon us! Once more the early August snowfall did not disappoint!
Aloe Polyphylla- (Kharetsa/ Spiral Aloe) | Propagation & Sales
In Mashili street Ha Lejone we find Mme Machakale Mashili, a self-taught propagation practitioner, with the kharetsa aloe as her plant of choice. This is an evergreen succulent that grows in unique spiral patterns and is endemic to Lesotho highlands. This very popular plant is now endangered and consequently protected by law.
The first quarter flew past at Motebong Lodge
It is not so long ago when we were saying bye to spring hello to summer and already we are almost saying hello to Winter. As the saying goes; ‘time flies when you are having a good time!’ As we celebrated the end of the year, we also hosted one of the biggest hiking groups

As spring sets-in, we are treated to a variety of colours and pleasant smells as trees flower. Motebong is particularly proud of its peach trees which are usually the first clear sign that the seasons are changing from winter to spring and then summer. More importantly however, these flowering trees remind of the fruit feast
Hiking & Bird watching Motebong Lodge
We are emerging from a winter that did not give us much snow and the thrills that go with the snow, but all is not lost! As the trees start threatening to show early shoots and the birdlife starts to make its presence felt with the early-morning wake-up calls, the highlands have other pleasures
