Bookmark & shareWeather is probably the main consideration for travellers deciding the best time to go, and if you don't mind getting a little wet, it doesn't much matter. Nearly all of Lesotho's rain falls in the summer, between October and April. It's beautiful and warm when the sun comes out, but mountain areas can be foggy and freezing.
Weather
With pleasant temperatures, low rainfall and plenty of sun, even the cold winter nights yield to fresh 15-20°C (59-68°F) days. However, October to March are the best months to visit. The perfectly warm weather makes up for the odd patch of rain, with the sun out in full force for lovely 25-30°C (77-86°F) days.
