Alta Sierra Airport

GRASS VALLEY, NEVADA Co., CA Services verified 7/7/2026

Alta Sierra Airport is a airport in GRASS VALLEY, CA. Field elevation 2280' MSL. Longest runway 2,834' of asph.

Alta Sierra Airport is a private-use residential airpark in the Sierra Nevada foothills, about six miles south of Grass Valley. It primarily supports resident and invited-guest general aviation rather than casual transient traffic, with prior permission required before landing.

Pilots should not plan on normal public-airport support at the field. Public sources found tiedown parking, but no verified public fuel seller, FBO, repair provider, crew car, courtesy car, or on-field restaurant. Nearby food options within about a 10-minute drive include the Alta Sierra Country Club grill, Trailblazer Craft Pizza & Brews, and Casa Las Katarinas, but all require ground transportation from the private airpark.

The local area offers a Grass Valley foothill setting with Gold Rush history nearby. Empire Mine State Historic Park and historic downtown Grass Valley are useful ground-transportation destinations when access and timing support a longer stop.
