LEMR – La Morgal
La Morgal Airfield (LEMR) is one of the most prominent general aviation platforms in northern Spain, located in the heart of Asturias, just minutes from Oviedo and Gijón. Though modest in size, the aerodrome plays a key role in regional aviation, firefighting operations, and air rescue services — all while offering a scenic and accessible base for private pilots.
What truly sets LEMR apart is its proximity to the Fernando Alonso Circuit, a world-class karting track designed by the Formula 1 champion himself. Located right next to the airfield, the complex includes a museum showcasing some of Alonso’s most iconic race cars, trophies, and personal memorabilia — a must-visit for motorsport enthusiasts arriving by air.
The approach to La Morgal offers a breathtaking aerial tour of Asturias: verdant meadows, gently rolling hills, and the dramatic peaks of the Picos de Europa in the distance. The region is known for its natural beauty and strong cultural identity, with traditional villages, cider houses, and Romanesque architecture waiting to be explored.
From the cockpit, the contrast between green valleys and the Atlantic coastline makes every flight in and out of LEMR an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re planning a weekend of aviation and adrenaline at the karting circuit, or looking to explore the rich cultural and gastronomic offerings of Asturias, La Morgal is the perfect starting point.
