## Description

Buffels River Airport lies in Namaqualand in South Africa's Northern Cape, in sparsely populated arid country near the lower Buffels River. It is a basic strip used for farm, mining and charter flights, with no scheduled service and no cargo handling, so freight relevance is effectively absent. Air cargo for the area is routed via Cape Town (CPT) and, regionally, Upington (UTN).
