Fort Portal Airport (ICAO: HUFP) is a small general aviation airstrip located near Fort Portal, a town in western Uganda at the foothills of the Rwenzori Mountains. The facility primarily serves light aircraft, charter flights, and occasional humanitarian or government operations rather than scheduled commercial airline service. The airstrip provides access to the surrounding region, which is known for its scenic landscapes, tea plantations, crater lakes, and proximity to Kibale National Park and other natural attractions. It serves as a convenience for tourists and operators who wish to avoid the long overland journey from Kampala. Given its limited infrastructure, Fort Portal Airport does not operate as a full commercial facility. Visitors typically access the town via road from Kampala, approximately 300 kilometers to the east, or through charter flights arranged by local tourism operators.
