A remote gateway deep into the heart of the Peruvian Amazon

It functions primarily as a lifeline for local communities, supporting access to basic services, goods, and occasional charter or missionary flights. Its remoteness defines its character as a frontier airfield rather than a commercial hub.

Ground Transport
  • Local motorcar taxis serving the immediate village area
  • River boat connections via nearby waterways for inter-community travel
Dining

There are no formal dining facilities at or near the airstrip. Travellers should bring their own provisions, as local food options are limited to small community vendors in the village of Shiringayoc.
