Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular views of Lake Vänern, Europe's largest lake outside Russia, along with the scenic Göta River valley and the rugged western archipelago during the descent into Gothenburg.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Lake Vänern

The primary highlight of the route, providing an expansive horizon of water that looks like an ocean.

🚢

Göta River

The winding waterway that connects Lake Vänern to the Kattegat sea, featuring historic locks and shipping paths.

🏞️

Trollhättan Falls

The industrial landscape of Trollhättan, where the river narrows and power stations are located.

🏝️

West Coast Archipelago

As the plane turns for landing at GOT, you may see the rocky granite islands of the Gothenburg coastline.

The right side is significantly more scenic due to the proximity to Lake Vänern. Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat blur. Late afternoon flights provide stunning reflections off the lake's surface.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌲

Dalarna Forests

Dense, deep green coniferous forests typical of central Sweden immediately after takeoff from Borlänge.

💧

Lake Vättern

Distant views of Sweden's second-largest lake, known for its deep, clear water and elongated shape.

🏘️

Borås Urban Area

The textile hub of Sweden, visible as a cluster of industrial and residential zones shortly before the final approach.

Sit on the left for softer morning light when flying south. While less dramatic than the right, it offers a peaceful view of the Swedish interior and the rolling hills of the Småland highlands in the distance.
