Wendover Air Force Base, former United States Air Force base in Utah now known as Wendover Airport
Wendover Air Force Base is a military air installation located in the Utah desert near the Nevada border. The facility spans open terrain with runways, hangars, and buildings from different eras that define the landscape.
The base was established in 1940 as an air force training facility and served important military functions during World War Two. It remains registered as a historic site that reflects its role in wartime operations.
Visitors should prepare for desert conditions with intense heat and minimal shade across the open grounds. The cooler months offer more comfortable visiting conditions than summer.
