Lisala Airport — Lisala, Democratic Republic of the Congo

Lisala Airport serves the town of Lisala in the Mongala Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, on the Congo River in the country's northern equatorial interior. At an elevation of about 1,509 feet, it has a single gravel runway near 7,200 feet, linking this remote riverside town to Kinshasa and other centers. Lisala sits deep in the rainforest belt of the northern Congo basin, in an area where the great river is a primary route and roads are limited. Air links are important for connecting the scattered towns of the interior. The LIQ code identifies this field, serving the Lisala area of the northern Democratic Republic of the Congo.
