| airport_desc | Chelinda Airport is a regional airstrip located in the verdant landscapes of Chelinda, situated in northern Malawi. Nestled at a formidable altitude of 7, 765 feet above sea level, the airport serves as a vital access point for travelers exploring the scenic beauty and wildlife of the Nyika National Park, renowned for its rolling grasslands, rich biodiversity, and unique montane environment. Facilities at Chelinda Airport are limited, reflecting its primary function as a smaller, regional gateway rather than a hub for international flights. Despite its modest size, the airport plays an integral role in connecting this remote part of Malawi with the broader transport network, providing essential support for tourism and local development. |
