Towns listed near HDS
Among the towns published on this site, the nearest reference points are Hoedspruit at 10 km; Phalaborwa at 47 km; Hazyview at 76 km. That is the fixed town list, not a claim about every settlement in the country.
Don't carry the Hoedspruit figure over to Phalaborwa. The listed distances are 10 km and 47 km. They are different reference points, so the shorter one is not the distance to the second town. Hoedspruit is the associated place name on the airport record, not the location of every hotel.
Other passenger airports near HDS
Airport-to-airport distance, measured from this airport's reference point to the other airport, puts Skukuza Airport (SZK) at 86 km; Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (MQP) at 114 km; Polokwane International Airport (PTG) at 172 km next. Do not mix those figures with a town-to-airport distance.
