The best time to visit Nkau, Mohale's Hoek District, Lesotho, is during the dry winter months, from May to September, for comfortable hiking and clear skies.
These months offer cool, dry weather, making outdoor activities like exploring the stunning landscapes and cultural sites much more pleasant. You'll find the trails are less muddy, and the views across the mountains are often crystal clear. It's an excellent time for those who enjoy active holidays, such as hiking or pony trekking, without the intense heat or heavy rainfall.
For travellers interested in cultural experiences and local festivals, the shoulder seasons of April or October can also be appealing. While there might be a slight increase in rainfall, you could catch local celebrations and enjoy a more vibrant community atmosphere.
