Texel Airport has one of the longest and strongest grass runways in Europe. The runway 22-04 has an official length of 1,115 meters. From ditch to ditch (obstacle-free) the length is even 1,235 meters. In addition, the airport also has a crosswind runway, runway 13-31. At 630 meters (ditch-ditch: 690 meters), this runway is significantly shorter than the 'long' runway, but very welcome in strong north-west or south-east winds.
