| Founded in 1824, Lesotho (fondly referred
to as the Kingdom in the Sky), is completely surrounded by South Africa. At 30,550.00
square kilometres, it is one of the world’s smallest countries and one of
the few remaining monarchies in Africa.
Tourette Fishing spent numerous months exploring Lesotho’s most wild
and remote rivers in search of the ultimate trout waters this beautifully harsh
country has to offer. And what we have found is a river which offers arguably
the finest sight fishing for trout Southern Africa has to offer.
If you live for wild places; not a weekend at the syndicate wild, the kind
of wild that reminds you that there are still forgotten corners of the planet
to be fished. If you are prepared to go the extra mile to reach virgin waters,
and the boutique sight fishing they offer, then trekking a remote river in the
Lesotho highlands is for you.
And if sight fishing to wild trout was not enough, the beauty of this harsh
mountain wilderness is astounding, and reason enough to spend time trekking through
Lesotho. Surrounded by drastic basalt cliffs and big skies, the Bearded Vulture
and the occasional herd boy and his flock will be your only neighbours during
the trek. Nights are enjoyed under a blanket of brilliant stars and days filled
with clear rivers, feisty fish and unforgettable scenery.
