Estevão Airport is a small general aviation airstrip serving Uiramutã, a remote municipality in the far north of Roraima state, Brazil, near the borders with Venezuela and Guyana. The airport plays a vital logistical role for a region that is largely inaccessible by paved road, supporting indigenous communities of the Raposa Serra do Sol territory and occasional government operations. Its remoteness defines its character as a lifeline airfield rather than a commercial hub.
