The Elk Valley Regional Airport is located off Highway 43 on Lower Elk Valley Road between Sparwood and Elkford in Electoral Area A. The airport is not a commercial facility and although it is open during the winter months, there is limited winter maintenance.

There is a paved runway; however, because it is not lit, it is intended for day use only. A tie down area has been established and there is a public phone.

The airport is used most frequently by small, private planes and in the summer months has been used by the Forest Service.
