Afri-Ski is the only ski station in Lesotho . It is located in the Maloti and Drakensberg Mountains in the Butha-Buthe district at an altitude of around 3030 meters.

The resort is located on the road connecting Butha-Buthe to Mokhotlong on Highway A1 . It can be reached from the west via the steep Moteng Pass and the Mahlasela Pass . It is one of only two winter sports areas in southern Africa and offers overnight accommodation for 352 people. There are two slopes, each with a ski lift, and a snow park for snowboarders. Snow cannons help with a lack of snow. In 2010 the South African championships in skiing and snowboarding took place here.
