The buildings and gardens on the SA side are in excellent condition and the staff must be complimented.
The distance and road conditions to the next border post (Makhaleng) are better on the Lesotho side, so we crossed the border into Lesotho. The Lesotho border post is just outside the gate of the SA building. It is a small, pre-fabricated building, but we experienced no difficulty crossing here. In fact, we did not complete any forms and I did not notice any electronic processing of our passports. It was just manually stamped.
The first 5 km in Lesotho is a good gravel road before we reached the tarred A2 road to Makhaleng border post, 45 km further.
