## Description

The Drakensberg Gardens airstrip sits at roughly 1,800 metres in the southern Drakensberg of KwaZulu-Natal and serves light aircraft bringing guests to the resorts and hiking areas nearby. It has no scheduled traffic, no cargo handling, no customs office and no internationally recognised airport codes, so it plays no role in freight. Air cargo for the region is handled at Durban King Shaka (DUR), the east coast gateway, and at Johannesburg O. R. Tambo (JNB), South Africa's largest air freight station, while Pietermaritzburg (PZB) is the nearest commercial airport at about 150 road kilometres.
