Weather:

Located in the Southern Hemisphere, Hazyview and the Kruger National Park have their share of rain and hot weather. During the summer months (September-April), one can experience sporadic rainfall in the form of quick thundershowers. April through August represent the winter months in Southern Africa, which in turn means very little rain. The temperatures average from 30 degrees Celsius in January (summer) to 23 degrees Celsius in July (winter). Please be aware that the maximum temperature can reach 47 degrees Celsius (January) and 35 degrees Celsius (July). For your information, the average nightly temperature can range from 7-18 degrees Celsius (January) and most certainly freezing in July. It is highly advisable to wear "breathable" clothes to avoid heat exhaustion or stroke during the day, drink plenty of water and ensure that appropriate clothing is available in the often-cold nights.
