Shepparton Airport (SHT/YSHT) is a regional general aviation airport in Victoria’s Goulburn Valley, located about 5 km south of Shepparton’s city centre. It supports private and charter aircraft, flight training, emergency services, and agricultural operations rather than regular scheduled airline service. The airport is owned by Greater Shepparton City Council and serves as a key access point for the surrounding fruit-growing and wine region.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors check ERSA/NAIPS and call ahead for fuel or after-hours access, especially on weekends, because the airport can be quiet and some services are not always staffed; wildlife is also occasionally active near the runway at dawn and dusk.
🚖 Getting There
The airport has no dedicated public bus link, so taxi, rideshare, or a pre-booked shuttle from Shepparton CBD is the most practical option. Rental cars are available in town, and the drive from the CBD takes about 10 minutes. If you are arriving by charter, ask the operator to arrange ground transport in advance, as the terminal may be unattended at times.
