## Description

Named after a Peruvian Air Force commander, the airport at Anta actually serves Huaraz, the trekking capital of the Áncash region some 20 kilometres away. Sitting at around 2,770 metres beneath the Cordillera Blanca, it offers limited passenger flights to Lima for visitors bound for Huascarán National Park. Logistics in this mining-rich region run on roads: concentrates from operations such as Antamina leave via pipeline and the coastal port of Huarmey rather than by air. With no cargo terminal on site, urgent air shipments are handled through Lima. ATA is a seasonal passenger field, not a freight base.
