About Lereh Airport
Lereh Airport (LHI) is a small domestic airfield serving Lereh and the remote communities of Jayapura Regency in Papua. It is an important connection point for light aircraft linking inland settlements with larger centers such as Sentani and Jayapura.
Located inland southwest of Jayapura, the airport sits around 90 km from the city centre. Road access is available but conditions can be difficult, and journeys from Jayapura or Sentani may take several hours depending on weather and the state of the road. The airport has a single grass runway, runway 12/30, measuring about 614 m.
Passenger facilities are modest: one small terminal building handles arrivals and departures. Travelers should be prepared for limited services and bring essential items, as there are no major shops, restaurants, or lounges at this remote airstrip.
Despite its limited facilities, Lereh Airport remains an essential gateway for local travel, supplies, and access to remote parts of Papua.
