Lesotho Highlands Moteng Pass

A rugged testament to endurance: an Old Toyota Land Cruiser navigating the legendary Moteng Pass in the Maloti Mountains of Lesotho. Reaching a staggering altitude of 2,820 meters, this steep, tarred pass is one of the highest in southern Africa and a vital link between Butha-Buthe and the diamond mining regions of Mokhotlong. The "Cruiser" looks perfectly at home against the dramatic alpine backdrop of the Mountain Kingdom, where extreme gradients and unpredictable weather make this vehicle a local necessity.
