Remote airstrip serving Colombia's mining heartland on the Nechí River.

Location
El Bagre, Colombia
El Bagre Airport (IATA: EBG, ICAO: SKEB) is a small regional airport located in El Bagre, a municipality in the Bajo Cauca subregion of Antioquia department, Colombia. It provides essential air connectivity to a town that is otherwise difficult to reach due to its remote jungle and river environment. The airport primarily serves light aircraft and small regional carriers, supporting the local economy which is heavily dependent on gold mining and fishing along the Nechí River. Air travel is often the most practical means of reaching El Bagre from larger Colombian cities. Due to its remote location and limited infrastructure, the airport handles modest passenger volumes and does not offer international service. It functions as a critical link for residents, workers, and government operations in the region.
Terminals
The airport has a single small terminal building with basic facilities suited to its low passenger traffic volumes.
Getting to & from
Ground transport from the airport into El Bagre town is limited to taxis and informal vehicles, as the town's road infrastructure is minimal.
Airlines here
