Small regional airstrip serving the Falcón highlands of Venezuela.

Location
Churuguara, Venezuela
Churuguara Airport (ICAO: SVHH) is a small general-aviation airstrip located near the town of Churuguara in Falcón State, Venezuela. It serves primarily light aircraft operations connecting this mountainous interior region with other parts of the country. The airport has no assigned IATA code, reflecting its limited role as a minor domestic facility rather than a commercial hub. Scheduled airline service is minimal to nonexistent, and the facility primarily supports private, charter, and occasional government flights. Churugura itself is a small Andean foothill town, and the airport's infrastructure is correspondingly modest, with basic facilities suited to the low traffic volumes it handles.
Getting to & from
Ground access to Churuguara town is likely by road, as the airport sits in a rural highland area with limited public transport infrastructure.
