Small regional airstrip serving the Racha region of Georgia.
Location
Ambrolauri, Georgia
Ambrolauri Airport is a small regional aerodrome located in Ambrolauri, the administrative center of the Racha-Lechkhumi and Kvemo Svaneti region in western Georgia. The airport serves limited domestic traffic and is situated amid the mountainous terrain of the Caucasus, which presents notable operational challenges.
The facility operates on a very limited schedule, if at all in recent years, and lacks the infrastructure of larger Georgian airports such as Tbilisi International or Kutaisi International. Its primary role is to provide basic air access to an otherwise remote and mountainous area of the country.
Getting to & from
Ground transport to Ambrolauri town center is limited to road vehicles, as the airport is located close to the small city.
