About Puerto Páez Airport
Puerto Páez Airport is a small regional airport serving the border town of Puerto Páez in Pedro Camejo Municipality, Apure state, Venezuela. Situated in the Los Llanos region near the Orinoco River and the Colombian border, it provides a local air gateway for the town and surrounding rural areas.
The airport has two parallel runways, including a grass runway with basic markings and a longer dirt runway that is partly overgrown. Operations are generally limited to daylight flights, and the airfield has only basic infrastructure without extensive navigation aids or airport services.
Located close to the town, the airport supports local and regional travel within Apure and onward connections by road and river. Puerto Páez lies on the Orinoco, and travelers can continue by local road transport, private transfers, taxis or river routes to nearby destinations such as Puerto Ayacucho and the Colombian border area.
Passenger facilities are minimal, so visitors should plan transport and supplies in advance. Despite its small size, the airport plays a practical role for regional mobility in this remote part of southern Venezuela.
