Hazyview is a small farming town in Mpumalanga, South Africa and is renowned for its banana industry. Close to Kruger National Park, the town's name is derived from the shimmering haze that occurs during the heat of summer. Most of Mpumalanga's private game reserves are found just east of Hazyview.

Just a mere 5 Kilometers from Phabeni Gate into the Kruger National Park makes Hazyview one of the easiest towns to access the Park from. With 3 Golf Courses within a 5 Km range of the Town center, it is also a perfect place to just relax and feel the good vibes of one of the friendliest towns in South Africa.
