Shangana Cultural Village Evening Festival

For guests who want to combine a dinner with an African experience, we highly recommend the Shangana Village:

The residents of the traditional villages of Shangana invite guests to share in the way of life of the Shangaan people. The picturesque villages are set in the shade of ancient trees in a reserve of forest and grassland, and are open every day.

A bustling African market village forms the centre of Shangana, where local craftspeople make and trade their craft. From here, trained guides lead guests down to the famed Evening Festival in the Chief's Kraal. The Chief and his family host the Evening Festival, where choirs, actors and dancers gather to tell the story of the Shangaan people.
The evening ends with a delicious dinner.

More information and bookings can be done by your hosts.

Why Hazyview is the best place to be...

Hazyview is the gateway to the Kruger National Park (only 10 kms from Phabeni, 18 kms from Numbi and 42 kms from Paul Kruger Gate) right on the Panorama Route Hazyview is also an excellent stopping off point for many of Mpumalanga’s points of interest, the Blyde River Canyon, Pilgrim’s Rest, Bourke’s Luck Potholes and amazing waterfalls..
Hazview is reputed to have the best climate in the world for bananas and you will see row upon row of these lush tropical plantations as well as a wide variety of other fruit and coffee farms.
Many visitors to Kruger National Park stay overnight in Hazyview rather than in the park itself, as it is quite close by and has a good choice of restaurants. Activities in and around Hazyview include horse trails, hiking and hot-air ballooning in and over the colourful Mpumalanga countryside. We can arrange all activities and Safaris for you!
Come and experience it yourself!
