Level well maintained grass surface in good condition. Closed during adverse surface conditions. Right hand landing approach to runway 09. (All traffic must stay south of the Helsinki-Karjaa road, becuse the noise-sensitive Degerby village is on the north side. At the end of runway 27 there is an oblique power line in the field, and a crossing road just in front of the threshold — lorries and other moving obstructions must be noted.
Do also note that there is often aeromodelling activity on Torbacka, model winches with tow lines may lie on the runway edge outside the threshold markings.
