Sani Mountain Escape offers an authentic escape hatch from reality. At the top of the legendary Sani Pass, the lodge and backpackers is a definite bucket-list experience and an iconic destination for more than 50 years.

Home to the highest
pub in Africa...

High on the Drakensberg escarpment just inside the border of Lesotho, Sani Mountain Escape offers comfortable accommodation beneath a sea of stars at night and breathtaking landscapes by day. It is also home to The Highest Pub in Africa. Spectacular views, cosy fires, adventure and great hospitality await any guest. A variety of accommodation is offered to suit any budget and preference from upmarket Basotho rondavels to backpacking and camping facilities.

Tourism Levy vs. Redeemable Entrance Fee
We apologize for any confusion between the Tourism Levy and our Redeemable Entrance Fee. The Tourism Levy is a charge by Lesotho’s Ministry of Tourism at the Sani Pass border, independent of Sani Mountain Escape. Our entrance fee is R100 for adults and R50 for children aged 5-12, and it includes a voucher which is redeemable at our restaurant and bar.

Capacity Notice
As a small establishment, we often reach full capacity during peak times. To ensure a comfortable experience for all guests, we won’t accept additional visitors once full. Due to our remote location, we understand the frustration of finding the lodge fully booked, so we strongly recommend checking availability with us in advance to avoid disappointment.

Backpackers
As of 1 August, Sani Mountain Escape has temporarily paused the Backpackers offering. We’re using this time to upgrade and improve the facility. All current bookings will be honoured, but we are not accepting new reservations at this time.
