Up near the top of my list would be Baguio. This is the summer capital of the Philippines about 5000 ft up and surrounded by mountains. Runway is about 4900 ft from memory and departure on 29 (27?) can be exciting. No ILS. Heavily undulated runway with occasional cattle just to add to the fun. Chuck in a bit of wind and you get the general idea.
Innsbuck when the foehn is blowing. I have also flown gliders out of there in the same conditions. Fun or what?
Lastty, Gig (North Front) in a Shack Mk 2 with the levanter blowing. Means you are coming in on the 'sticky out bit' with wind changes of up to 90 degrees on finals.
