Bajhang Airport is a domestic airport located in Jayaprithvi serving Bajhang District, a district in Sudurpashchim Province in Nepal.

History

The airport was originally opened in October 1976 but ceased to operate after road access to the district headquarter Chainpur was established in 2008. There are plans to reopen the airport after the runway is blacktopped, which was due to be done by 2020. Until 2022, there were no scheduled services to and from Bajhang Airport. Previously Nepal Airlines operated routes to Nepalgunj and Dhangadhi.

Facilities

The airport resides at an elevation of 4100 ft above mean sea level. It has one runway which is 654 m in length.
