Johan Pienaar Airport

The airport stands at an elevation of about 4,382 feet with a single asphalt runway near 5,578 feet. Traffic here reflects the modest needs of a rural Northern Cape town rather than heavy commercial demand, with the field linking Kuruman to larger South African centers where distances by road are considerable.
