Which side of the plane to sit from Bergen Airport Flesland (Bergen) to Trondheim Airport Værnes (Trondheim)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides unparalleled views of Norway's majestic fjords and the massive Jostedalsbreen glacier, offering a more dramatic mountain landscape than the coastal view on the left.
Sognefjord
Aerial perspective of Norway's longest and deepest fjord, cutting deep into the mountainous interior.
Jostedalsbreen Glacier
The largest glacier in continental Europe appears as a massive white plateau shimmering between the peaks.
Sunnmøre Alps
Jagged, alpine peaks that rise directly from the fjords, offering some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in Scandinavia.
Trollheimen
As you approach Trondheim, look for the 'Home of the Trolls' mountain range known for its diverse alpine ecology.
Trondheimsfjord
A beautiful view of the winding fjord leading toward the city during the final approach into Værnes.
The right side is superior for mountain enthusiasts. Aim for a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the glaciers and peaks. Request a seat toward the front or rear of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap.
Atlantic Archipelago
Stunning views of the rugged coastline and thousands of small islands scattered along the North Sea edge.
Ålesund City
A clear view of the unique Art Nouveau town built across several islands, often visible shortly after passing the midpoint.
Atlantic Ocean Road
Look for the iconic winding bridges connecting the coastal communities between Molde and Kristiansund.
Smøla Island
A distinctive flat island landscape featuring a massive wind farm visible just before the final descent toward Trondheim.
Choose the left side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. This side is also better for spotting the unique geography of coastal towns like Ålesund and Kristiansund.
