Sprengisandur Airport is a remote gravel airstrip set high in Iceland's interior highlands, in the Sudurland region, at an elevation of around 1,991 feet. It offers two crossing gravel runways and no instrument approach, making it a basic strip for light aircraft access to the central highlands.
Sprengisandur Airport is a small, unattended gravel airstrip located in the remote central highlands of Iceland, within the Sudurland (Southern Region) administrative area. It serves as a basic landing ground for light aircraft operating into the sparsely inhabited interior, an area better known for its rough tracks and glacial rivers than for scheduled aviation, making it a point of interest for pilots seeking to explore Iceland's highland wilderness by air.
The airfield lies within Icelandic airspace in the Sudurland region, in the remote Sprengisandur plateau area of the central highlands, well away from any towns or controlled aerodromes. There is no indication of controlled airspace overlying the field, and it should be treated as an uncontrolled strip surrounded by open, largely unpopulated terrain.
The airfield has two gravel runways. The first, aligned 05/23, is 2,739 feet long. The second, aligned 09/27, is 2,574 feet long. Both are surfaced in gravel (D), and there is no ILS or other instrument approach available.
No communications frequencies are published for Sprengisandur Airport, and there is no air-ground or air traffic control service known to be associated with the field. No navigation aids or instrument approach procedures are available, so arrivals and departures must be conducted visually.
