Which side of the plane to sit from Sveg Airport (Sveg) to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the iconic Siljan Ring and the rolling hills of the Dalarna province, providing a more diverse landscape than the eastern side.
Svegssjön Reservoir
The massive hydroelectric reservoir just south of the airport, often reflecting the sky like a mirror.
The Siljan Ring
The site of Europe's largest impact crater, featuring the stunning Lake Siljan and its unique circular geography.
Orsasjön
A beautiful lake connected to Siljan, surrounded by the cultural heartland of traditional Swedish crafts.
Dalarna Villages
Clusters of iconic Falu-red wooden houses dotting the landscape, especially visible at lower altitudes.
Uppsala Skyline
On clear days during the southern descent, you can often spot the spires of Uppsala Cathedral in the distance.
The right side is the 'cultural' side of this route. For the best photography of Lake Siljan, an afternoon flight provides excellent lighting that emphasizes the crater's unique shape. If the wind is from the south, you'll have a perfect view of the Mälaren basin just before touchdown.
Härjedalen Wilderness
Dense, untouched coniferous forests stretching toward the horizon immediately after takeoff from Sveg.
Ljusnan River
Follow the silver thread of one of Sweden's longest rivers as it winds through the valley floors.
Gävleborg Transition
Watch the rugged northern terrain flatten into the gentle coastal plains of the Swedish east coast.
Uppland Farmlands
A patchwork of yellow and green fields that characterize the approach into the Stockholm region.
Arlanda Infrastructure
Detailed views of the northern cargo terminals and logistics hubs during the final approach.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and get a clear view of the deep green forests. During winter, look for the 'glitter effect' of frozen rivers like the Ljusnan. This side is generally quieter visually but offers a great sense of Sweden's vast scale.
