About location

Letiště Borek lies in the Central Bohemian lowland, where gently rolling farmland is edged by hedgerows and small stands of trees. Near the village of Borek, the airfield is defined by a broad grass operating area and modest buildings along its perimeter. This is a distinctly rural setting, shaped by cultivated fields and an open horizon rather than dense urban development. The locality forms part of the wider Polabí region, a lowland associated with the Elbe basin. Borek reflects the quieter agricultural character of Central Bohemia, not far from Prague.
