Gateway to southeastern Senegal's remote Kédougou region.

Location
Kédougou, Senegal
Kédougou Airport (IATA: KGG, ICAO: GOTK) is a small domestic airport serving the city of Kédougou in the far southeastern corner of Senegal, near the borders with Guinea and Mali. The airport supports access to a region that is otherwise difficult to reach by road, particularly during the rainy season when routes can become impassable. The airport primarily handles light aircraft and occasional scheduled domestic services connecting Kédougou to Dakar. The surrounding region is known for its biodiversity, including Niokolo-Koba National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and growing gold mining activity. Air access plays a modest but important role in linking this remote area to the national capital.
Terminals
The airport has a simple, small terminal facility consistent with a regional domestic aerodrome with limited passenger amenities.
Getting to & from
Ground transport to Kédougou city center is limited to taxis and private vehicles, as no formal public transit system serves the airport.
