After approximately 50 km, turn left onto the R26 road towards the Bokong Nature Reserve. Continue on this road for about 15 km until you reach the entrance of the reserve.

Upon reaching the village, you may need to hire a local taxi or arrange for a guide to take you the remaining 15 km to the reserve entrance, as public transport may not reach the reserve directly. Be prepared for the cost of the minibus fare, which typically ranges from 20 to 50 Maloti, and negotiate a fare for the local taxi.

For the adventurous, if you’re already near the reserve, consider hiking to the entrance. There are several trails leading through the scenic landscapes of the Maluti Mountains.
