Nestled at an elevation of 6100 feet above sea level, the airport primarily serves the surrounding mountainous areas, facilitating both passenger travel and freight transport. Due to its high-altitude location, the airport presents unique operational challenges, including variable weather conditions and thin air, which can affect aircraft performance. The airport plays a vital role in connecting the remote communities of this part of Lesotho to the rest of the country, supporting economic activities and access to essential services. |
