Search flights from BMA to SDL
Stockholm Archipelago
A stunning aerial perspective of thousands of islands, islets, and rocks stretching out into the Baltic Sea during the initial climb.
Gävleborg Coastline
Clear views of the 'Jungfrukusten' (Virgin Coast) with its traditional fishing villages and the port city of Gävle.
Gulf of Bothnia
The vast, blue expanse of the Bottenhavet, often filled with cargo ships heading to northern industrial ports.
Sundsvall Bridge
During the final approach, you can see the impressive Sundsvall Bridge spanning the bay, a major landmark of the region.
The High Coast Gateway
The dramatic landscape where the mountains meet the sea, marking the southern edge of the UNESCO World Heritage High Coast.
The right side is significantly more scenic for this coastal route. For the best lighting, choose a morning flight to see the sun rising over the Baltic Sea. Ensure your window is clear, as the contrast between the dark pine forests and the blue sea makes for excellent photography. Watch for the transition from the flat Uppland plains to the rugged, hilly terrain of Medelpad.
Book Hotels in Sundsvall
Lake Mälaren
Immediate views of the royal Drottningholm Palace and the lush islands of Sweden's third-largest lake right after takeoff from Bromma.
Hälsingland Wilderness
Vast expanses of dense northern forests and rolling hills that characterize the interior of central Sweden.
Indalsälven Valley
As the plane descends, watch the winding path of the Indalsälven river as it snakes through the valley towards the sea.
Sit on the left side during afternoon flights to minimize direct sun glare while looking inland. It is particularly scenic during autumn when the birch forests show vibrant yellow colors. Keep an eye out for the many small lakes that dot the landscape between Uppsala and Sundsvall.
