Private general aviation airfield at Lielupe river near to Kalnciems, created just few years ago. It has three grass runways arranged in 'A' shape, all of them are 500m long. This airfield will find its real use by ultralight aviation since the runways are very short and surrounded by obstacles. Before landing here make sure your aircraft has sufficient climb rate to safely overfly obstacles during takeoff.

Location: 5 km SE of Kalnciems, 13 km N of Jelgava
