Varniai air field is an abandoned airfield 240kilometers (145miles) west-northwest of Vilnius.
The airfield was built by the Soviet Union in the 1975-1985 timeframe.
It was used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot.
It consisted only of a small runway, connected to a small road.


No photos of the airfield while in use have been located


From what can be gathered from Google Earth the runway appears to be in a fair condition.
There are no buildings at the airfield.
The airfield is uncertified and therefore officially closed to all traffic.
