Remote airstrip serving the Upper Essequibo region of Guyana.

Location
Lumid Pau, Guyana
Lumid Pau Airport is a small, remote airstrip located in the Upper Essequibo region of Guyana, serving the indigenous community of Lumid Pau. It provides a critical link for residents in this isolated area who would otherwise have no practical access to larger urban centers. The airport is a basic facility typical of interior Guyanese airstrips, with a short unpaved runway capable of handling small propeller-driven aircraft. It plays an essential role in connecting the community to services such as medical care, supplies, and government support. Due to its remote nature and limited infrastructure, Lumid Pau Airport sees very low traffic volumes and does not support commercial airline operations. Flights are primarily operated by charter services and small regional operators serving Guyana's interior regions.
