Tres Lagunas Airstrip

The specific reason for closure is not officially recorded. However, given its nature as a small, private airstrip in a remote agricultural area, the closure was almost certainly due to economic or operational changes. Common reasons for such closures include the sale of the associated ranch (estancia), the owner no longer having a need for air access, or the high cost of maintenance making it unviable. It was not closed due to military conversion or a major accident.

The site is an abandoned airstrip on private property. Satellite imagery clearly shows the faint outline of a single, unpaved (dirt/grass) runway. The runway is heavily overgrown with vegetation, rutted, and completely unusable for any aviation purposes. The surrounding land continues to be used for agriculture and cattle grazing.

The airstrip's significance was purely local. It was a private 'pista de estancia' (ranch airstrip) serving the agricultural operations of the surrounding area, likely an estate named 'Tres Lagunas'. Its operations would have consisted of general aviation and agricultural aviation, including crop dusting, transportation for the farm's owners and workers, and movement of light cargo and supplies. It was a functional tool for a large, remote agricultural enterprise, not a public or commercial airport.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the Tres Lagunas Airstrip. Reinstating the airstrip would require significant private investment from the current landowner to clear, grade, and maintain the runway. Without a specific economic or logistical need for private air access, it is highly improbable that the airstrip will ever be reactivated.
