In June 2015, Cassini high-resolution images of Saturn's limb southwards ofthe planet's hexagonal wave revealed a system of at least six stacked hazelayers above the upper cloud deck. Here, we characterize those haze layers anddiscuss their nature. Vertical thickness of layers ranged from 7 to 18 km, andthey extended in altitude approx 130 km, from pressure level 0.5 bar to 0.01bar. Above them, a thin but extended aerosol layer reached altitude approx 340km (0.4 mbar). Radiative transfer modeling of spectral reflectivity shows thathaze properties are consistent with particles of diameter 0.07- 1.4 \{mu}m andnumber density 100 - 500 cm -3. The nature of the hazes is compatible withtheir formation by condensation of hydrocarbon ices, including acetylene andbenzene at higher altitudes. Their vertical distribution could be due to upwardpropagating gravity waves generated by dynamical forcing by the hexagon and itsassociated eastward jet.
