4. The Airport:
The 800m long runway, which is in reasonable condition, has an asphalt surface and is very suitable for hobby and general aviation activities. However, the narrow edge areas of the runway are a bit soft, especially in spring, and you should not taxi off the runway, because the area surrounding the runway is very uneven and soft. An asphalted taxiway leads from the runway to the platform approx. 200m from the 30-threshold. A maintenance road also runs parallel to the runway (not suitable for taxiing an aircraft).
