Uppland Archipelago
Dense forests and thousands of small islands north of Arlanda during the initial climb.
The High Coast
A UNESCO World Heritage site featuring the world's highest isostatic rebound with steep granite cliffs.
Umeå Cityscape
Clear views of the Ume River and the urban center of the 'City of Birches'.
Swedish Lapland Coast
Intricate coastlines of Skellefteå and Piteå, often covered in thick pack ice during winter months.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side provides the best view of the dramatic Swedish coastline. In winter, look for the 'ice roads' connecting coastal islands to the mainland.

Gulf of Bothnia
Vast stretches of the Baltic Sea, which transforms into a solid white sheet of ice from January to April.
Kvarken Archipelago
The Finnish side of the UNESCO site, characterized by unique De Geer moraine ridges.
Hailuoto Island
A large, iconic island at the entrance to Oulu, visible during the final descent.
Oulu Port & City
The industrial docks and the grid layout of Oulu city as the plane banks for landing.
The right side is excellent for viewing the frozen sea and the unique landforms of the Kvarken Archipelago. Keep your eyes peeled for icebreakers creating trails through the ice in mid-winter. During the final approach, Hailuoto island is a major landmark.
