The town is home to Lesotho's first and only Snake Park, which is conveniently situated at the foot of the historic Letloepe hill/rock formation.
The locality may be the only place in Africa where California Redwood trees grow (the area is visible on the photo, to the right-hand side of the wooded Letloepe hill).
As one enters the town from Maseru (1 km from the road in the picture), one can see the famous lefika-motho ("man-rock"), which looks like a man's head with a cap on.
The people of Qacha's Nek are called "Melele" (Wanderers), and the colours of the place / district are maroon and white.
From the nearby Indian Ocean clouds move up almost daily, so that in Qacha's Nek fog often prevails.
