LGX is an airport code associated with Luuq, also spelled Lugh, a town in the Gedo region of southwestern Somalia, in the Horn of Africa, set on a bend of the Jubba river near the borders with Ethiopia and Kenya. Luuq is a historic town, one of the oldest in the region, occupying a striking position almost encircled by a loop of the river, and has long been a trading and crossing point in this frontier area of southern Somalia. However, Somalia has been affected by prolonged conflict and instability, and much of the country is considered extremely dangerous; governments strongly advise against all travel, and there is no tourist infrastructure. It is essential to rely on current official advice, which is likely to warn against any travel. Luuq is reached by a local airstrip and by desert roads, though access is unsafe. The climate is hot and dry, with sparse, seasonal rains.
