Pokhara Domestic Airport — Pokhara, Nepal

Pokhara Domestic Airport, coded PKR, was long the primary gateway to Pokhara, Nepal's second-largest city and the main jumping-off point for Annapurna region trekking. Nestled in a valley with views of the Annapurna and Machapuchare peaks, the airport historically handled short-runway operations and was known for dramatic mountain scenery on approach. Domestic carriers connected Pokhara to Kathmandu and other Nepali hubs, and the airport supported tourism, trekking logistics, and mountaineering expeditions. A new Pokhara International Airport has since opened nearby to expand capacity, but PKR remains referenced for the original domestic facility that served generations of trekkers and pilgrims heading into the Himalayan foothills.
