Vanavara Airport is an airport in Russia located 2 km northeast of Vanavara.[1] It is a civilian airport with a well-maintained concrete runway and a utilitarian transport layout. The airport was first opened in 1948.[2] The forest clearway is cleared out to 3 km, suggesting that the runway length may have been longer decades ago. A nearby airport is Aksenovo Airport.[3]
