Hella Airport (ICAO: BIHL) is a small, unstaffed general aviation aerodrome serving the town of Hella in the Sudurland (Southern) region of Iceland. It sits at a modest elevation of 135 feet and offers two hard-surfaced runways, making it a useful VFR stop for pilots touring the south coast and the approaches to the Icelandic interior.
Hella Airport lies at Hella, in Iceland's Sudurland region, on the south coast of the country. No specific controlled airspace details or FIR boundary information are available in the sources consulted, but as a small uncontrolled airfield it can be expected to sit within the lower reaches of Icelandic airspace typical of small regional strips.
Hella Airport has two hard-surfaced runway pairs. The main runway, 04/22, is 3,362 feet long, while the shorter secondary runway, 11/29, measures 2,198 feet. Both are of hard construction; no lighting or ILS is provided at the field.
No communications frequencies are published for Hella Airport, and it appears to have no assigned radio callsign or air-ground service on record. Pilots should expect an unattended field with no instrument approach procedures and should rely on visual flight rules and standard self-announcing practice where applicable.
The town of Hella itself, situated on the south coast of Iceland, serves as the principal visual reference for locating the airfield, which lies in its immediate vicinity.
Hella Airport continues to function as a small general aviation airfield with two hard-surfaced runways. No details on current operating hours, fuel availability, or based clubs are available in the sources consulted, so pilots planning a visit should treat it as a basic, unstaffed strip and confirm current status before flying.
