Dalnegorsk Airport (DHG), also known by its ICAO code UHWD, is a critical regional aviation facility located in Dalnegorsk, within the Primorsky Krai region of the Russian Far East. Situated amidst the rugged Sikhote-Alin mountains, the airport is a vital link for the local mining town and the surrounding wilderness areas. It serves as a primary gateway for both domestic business travelers and tourists exploring the unique ecological landscapes of the Russian maritime interior. The passenger terminal at Dalnegorsk is a compact and efficient facility designed to handle domestic arrivals and departures with characteristic Far Eastern practicality. The layout is intuitive, featuring modern check-in counters, a streamlined security checkpoint, and a comfortable waiting lounge. Despite its regional scale, the facility is well-appointed with essential amenities, including a small buffet area and clean restrooms. The airport's small size ensures that walking distances between the entrance and the aircraft are minimal, often taking only a few minutes. Operations at the airport are primarily focused on domestic routes, linking Dalnegorsk to the regional hub of Vladivostok and the settlement of Svetlaya. The facility is equipped with a paved runway suitable for regional turboprop aircraft such as the De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, which is exclusively operated by Aurora Airlines.
