## Description

One of India's trickiest approaches greets pilots at Kullu Manali Airport (IATA: KUU) in Bhuntar: hemmed in by steep Himalayan slopes at 1,089 m, its runway of roughly 1,120 m takes only small turboprops. Traffic is seasonal and weather-dependent, serving Himachal Pradesh tourism almost exclusively. The field has no cargo handling. Produce from the valley – the celebrated Kullu apples among it – travels by road regardless, and air freight from the region is handled at Chandigarh (IXC) or Delhi (DEL).
