blocking visibility

How to block visibility with fog, like in 1 area i dont want the player to see clearly past 50 meters and if there is a way to do it will it also block the view of enemys?

Take the 'no fog' key (can't remember exactly what it is) out of the skybox's .vmt files for fog on the skybox. Set the env_fog_controller's Z cliip to 1969 for visibility limited to ~50 meters. Technically, NPCs wouldn't be in the PVS so they shouldn't be able to see you either, but I'm not 100% sure.
