## Description

On the northern edge of the Harz mountains, Ballenstedt airfield in Saxony-Anhalt runs gliding, general aviation and sightseeing flights from a grass runway. There are no scheduled services, no freight handling and no customs post, so its cargo relevance is slight. Air freight from the region is processed at Leipzig/Halle (LEJ), some 120 road kilometres away and one of Europe's largest cargo airports thanks to the DHL Express hub.
