The exact closure date is not officially documented, as it was a private facility. Analysis of historical satellite imagery suggests it fell into disuse and became unserviceable sometime between 2015 and 2018. Imagery from the early 2010s shows a well-maintained grass runway, while images from the late 2010s onwards show significant overgrowth and a lack of maintenance.
The airport was a private airstrip serving the Haras Trelliris stud farm. The closure was not due to a specific event like an accident or military conversion. It was most likely closed for private economic or logistical reasons, such as the owner no longer operating an aircraft, the cost of maintenance becoming prohibitive, or a change in the operational needs of the stud farm. This type of closure is common for private airfields that cease to be a necessity for their owners.
The site is still the active Haras Trelliris stud farm. The former runway is still identifiable as a long, clear strip of land on satellite imagery, but it is completely overgrown with grass and is no longer maintained or suitable for any aviation activity. It has effectively reverted to being a field or pasture within the farm's property.
The airport had no major public or historical significance. It was a private-use aerodrome (estancia) with a single grass runway. Its sole purpose was to serve the transportation needs of the Haras Trelliris, a notable thoroughbred horse breeding farm (a 'haras' is a stud farm). Operations would have been limited to small, private, general aviation aircraft (e.g., Cessna, Piper) used by the farm's owners, clients, or key personnel for convenient access to the remote rural property.
There are no known public plans, discussions, or prospects for reopening the airport. As a private facility, any decision to restore and reopen the airstrip would be entirely at the discretion of the current owners of the Haras Trelliris property. Given its extended period of disuse, reopening is considered highly unlikely.
