Hazyview

Hazyview is a town situated in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. It is located in the heart of the subtropical Lowveld, west of the Kruger National Park. Due to its proximity to the park, Hazyview serves as a popular tourism hub and is often referred to as the "gateway to the Kruger National Park."

The town's economy is primarily driven by tourism and agriculture. The fertile land surrounding Hazyview is used for the cultivation of bananas, mangoes, avocados, macadamia nuts, and other subtropical fruits. Several adventure tourism activities, such as river rafting, ziplining, and hot air ballooning, are also popular in the area.

Hazyview is well-connected to other towns and cities in the region by road. The R40 road, which passes through Hazyview, provides access to destinations like White River, Nelspruit (Mbombela), and Graskop. The climate in Hazyview is subtropical, with warm, humid summers and mild winters.

The origin of the name "Hazyview" is attributed to the hazy atmosphere often present in the area, particularly during the hot summer months.
