Which side of the plane to sit from Borlange Airport (Borlange) to Örebro Airport (Orebro)?

Historic Hedemora

View one of Sweden's oldest cities, recognizable by its traditional architecture and surrounding agricultural plains.

🌊

Lake Hjälmaren

As you approach Örebro, enjoy expansive views of Sweden's fourth-largest lake stretching toward the eastern horizon.

Örebro City Center

Catch a glimpse of the iconic Örebro Castle and the city's urban layout during the final approach phase.

For the best views of Lake Hjälmaren, choose an afternoon flight when the sun is in the west, illuminating the water and the city of Örebro beautifully. Keep your eyes peeled immediately after takeoff for the silver glint of the Dalälven.

Lake Runn

Just after departing Borlänge, look down at this island-dense lake, a popular spot for skating in winter and sailing in summer.
