Pony-trekking in Lesotho - Helen Davies. Date of travel: Feb 2006
If you expect smart accommodation and fancy food, top of the range riding gear and powerful racehorses then a ponytrek in Lesotho is not for you!! What you will find is a warm welcome in every village, a friendly guide, strong and surefooted mountain ponies and exeptional scenery. Previous riding experience is not necessary, as most of the day your trusty steed will be negotiating steep ups and downs or walking along plateaus while you take in the views, not galloping wildly across grasslands - although there are oportunities like this for those who would like to. A pack horse (mule) comes along to carry all your gear and there are saddle bags for cameras, snacks etc.
