Remote airstrip serving the high desert of southeastern Oregon.
Location
Frenchglen, United States
Frenchglen Airport is a small general aviation airstrip located near the tiny community of Frenchglen in Harney County, Oregon. It serves as a basic landing facility for private pilots and light aircraft accessing this remote corner of the high desert region.
The airport sits near the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and the Steens Mountain area, making it a convenient access point for wildlife observers, ranchers, and outdoor recreation enthusiasts. Due to its rural setting, it has no commercial airline service and only minimal infrastructure.
Frenchglen itself has a population of only a handful of residents, and the airstrip reflects the scale and needs of such an isolated community. It is listed in FAA records but does not carry an IATA code.
