The small town of Hazyview is located at the outskirts of Kruger National Park, the most famous wildlife park of South Africa. The major attraction of this zone is situated in close proximity with each other. Some of the many things that you can choose to visit one after another include Blyde River Canyon, Pilgrim’s Rest, God’s Window viewpoint, Bourke’s Luck Portholes, the three Rondavels and of course, Kruger National Park.

Blyde River Canyon is a must visit for being the third largest canyon in the entire world. The Berlin and Lisbon, near the canyon’s waterfalls, introduce you to a magical world of their own. Plus, the House Museum at “Pilgrim’s rest” is like ‘time travelling’ into the history of Mpumalanga town. Also, the spectacular views from “God’s Window” are the most picturesque and last in memory forever. The rock formations at “Bourke’s Luck Portholes” and the spectacular mountain peak called the “three Rondavels” (quite like three sisters at the Blue Mountains of Australia), complete your trip to the region.

In addition to sightseeing, hiking, trekking, mountain climbing etc you can also try hot air ballooning near Hazyview, the speciality of this place.

Also, Kruger National Park Safari and night camping is like a ‘must do’ if you are coming to Hazyview. The park holds a top position for some of the most extraordinary wildlife footages you might have caught on National Geographic Channel.

This town is visited 24/7 by tourists and wildlife photographers from around the world destinations. Therefore, the accommodations, excursions, transportation and other facilities are well maintained. The best way to include ‘Hazyview’ in your itinerary is to put it as the starting point of your South Africa tour as most airline directly fly to Johannesburg in comparison with the very few direct flights to Cape Town and Durban.
