I think the airstrip at Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe was extended as an emergency strip for the space shuttle back in the day.

But I suspect it would not be an ideal location to land an A380, even if the strip was in decent condition (which is unlikely I imagine!).

It is a great National Park tho 😀
