General
Guaymaral is a general aviation airfield about 16kms north of Bogota, near the suburb of Chia. Moreoever, the airfield serves as a base of the Colombian National Police, which operates its helicopters from a number of walled and heavily guarded compounds. Guaymaral is not an easy airfield to practise your hobby and if there's no flying activity, we recommend trying to get a platform tour.
Beware, aircraft spotting and photography are not generally understood as a hobby in Colombia.
Layout
The runway lies east west and all hangars and buildings are situated north of the runway. These, however, as well as hedges and walls, effectively block views from the road. The south side is reasonably open, but the distance from the dirt road to the runway is considerable.
Getting There
Guaymaral is situated north of Bogota, and south of its suburb Chia. From the city centre follow the autopista to Tunja and take the Guaymaral exit.
