## Description

Clariden-Hüfifirn (ICAO: LSVD) is not an airport but one of Switzerland's officially designated mountain landing sites: a landing spot on the glacier plateau north of the Planura hut, on the border of the cantons of Uri and Glarus, used for glacier flights, mountain rescue and mountain-flying training with helicopters and suitably equipped aeroplanes. There is no terminal, no freight handling, no customs post and no IATA code, and none is intended at a site of this kind — it has no freight relevance whatsoever. Air freight in Switzerland is handled at Zurich (ZRH), the country's largest cargo airport, as well as Geneva (GVA) and Basel-Mulhouse (BSL/EAP); the nearest general aviation airfields are Mollis in the canton of Glarus and Buochs in Nidwalden.
