Tips
I hitchhiked down in 2019, no signs of tar/paving in the steepest part.

Lesotho: South Africa. At the top, the highest pub in Africa (2,874 m) and a fabulous panoramic view beckons. The pass is the only road connection from the eastern border of Lesotho to South Africa. However, before this mountain pass torments itself, it is recommended to mount the GoPro on the helmet. Rough, wild and unpaved, the hairpin bends meander through the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal. Partly so steep that almost the front tire lifts off the ground.

Climbing this pass by MTB is a difficult challenge. The road in the lower area is partly being optimized. Further up there are some larger stones and boulders to overcome. Once you reach the top you will be rewarded with a beautiful view
