Tele Bridge

Telle Bridge is a Border Post located between South Africa and Lesotho.

The actual steel motorbridge spans the Telle River, a tributary of the Orange River that flows across half of South Africa.

The anti-apartheid South African journalist and editor of the Daily Dispatch, Donald Woods entered Lesotho by Tele Bridge as he was fleeing from South Africa on New Year's Eve, 1977.
