Search flights from CDG to LFW
Pyrenees Range
Stunning views of the jagged, snow-dusted peaks forming the natural border between France and Spain.
Grand Erg Occidental
Massive, wind-sculpted sand dunes stretching to the horizon, creating a sea of orange and gold patterns.
Atlas Mountains
The rugged, sun-baked ridges of the Saharan Atlas providing a stark contrast to the Mediterranean coast.
Niger River Bend
The vital waterway of West Africa visible as a shimmering silver thread amidst the arid landscape.
Gulf of Guinea
The final approach provides a panoramic view of the Atlantic coastline and the port of Lomé.
The right side is superior for sunset flights as the light catches the Saharan dunes. Look out for the massive sand seas over Algeria. During the final 20 minutes of flight, the right side usually offers the best view of the Togolese coastline and the Atlantic Ocean before touchdown.

Deep blue waters transitioning into the rocky coastline of Algeria near Algiers or Bejaia.
Ahaggar Mountains
