Small regional aerodrome serving Northland's Kaipara district.

Location
Dargaville, New Zealand
Dargaville Aerodrome (IATA: DGR, ICAO: NZDA) is a small general aviation facility located near Dargaville, the main town of the Kaipara District in the Northland region of New Zealand. It serves primarily private, recreational, and light charter aircraft rather than scheduled commercial airline services. The aerodrome is situated in a rural setting typical of the Northland region and provides a convenient local aviation hub for the surrounding agricultural and forestry communities. Its relatively modest infrastructure reflects the small population it serves.
