Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the dramatic transition from Swedish forests to the rugged Norwegian mountains and fjords, benefiting from better lighting away from the southern sun.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Lake Mälaren

Excellent views of the northern Stockholm suburbs and the finger-like extensions of Sweden's third-largest lake.

🌲

Värmland Wilderness

Vast stretches of dense pine forests and deep blue glacial lakes characterizing central Sweden.

❄️

Hardangervidda Fringe

View the northern edges of Europe's largest high-mountain plateau, often covered in snow until mid-summer.

⚓

Rogaland Fjords

Dramatic rocky inlets and steep cliffs as the plane descends toward the Stavanger peninsula.

This side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the landscape. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain as the flat Swedish landscape transforms into the jagged Norwegian peaks. The descent often provides a sweeping view of the North Sea oil capital's offshore infrastructure.

Left Side Highlights

🌊

Stockholm Archipelago

Aerial view of the intricate network of islands forming the eastern Swedish coastline during initial climb.

🚢

Lake Vänern

The southern coastline of the largest lake in the EU, appearing as a vast inland sea.

🏔️

Telemark Highlands

The rolling mountainous terrain of Southern Norway as the flight crosses the border region.

🏖️

Jæren Coastline

Distinctive flat, sandy beaches and agricultural fields unique to this part of Norway just before landing.

Sit here during morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Keep an eye out for the Skagerrak strait in the distance to the south as you enter Norwegian airspace. During the final approach to Stavanger, look for the unique geometric patterns of the Jæren farmlands.
