Ebro River Valley
The lush green corridor of the Ebro river cutting through the more arid landscape of Aragon.
Montserrat Massif
The spectacular multi-peaked rocky range that serves as a gateway to the Barcelona region.
Barcelona City Grid
The unique octagonal blocks of the Eixample district and the Mediterranean coastline during approach.

Extremadura Dehesas
The unique Mediterranean oak forest and pasture landscape typical of western Spain during initial climb.
Plains of La Mancha
The vast, flat agricultural heartland of Spain, famous for its association with Don Quixote.
Sistema Ibérico
Rugged geological formations and deep valleys as the flight crosses the eastern part of the Meseta.
Costa Daurada
The golden beaches of the Tarragona coastline as the plane nears the Mediterranean.
Port of Barcelona
Views of the massive logistics hub, cruise terminals, and the Montjuïc hill during the final turn.
The right side is excellent for morning flights as the sun illuminates the coastline without causing glare. If the aircraft performs a 'sea approach,' you will have a direct view of the cargo ships and the Mediterranean horizon. Look for the Ebro Delta further south if the flight path is adjusted.
