HAD → VXO
Which side of the plane to sit from Halmstad Airport (Halmstad) to Växjö Kronoberg Airport (Vaxjo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dense lake districts of Småland and the historic approach over Helgasjön towards Växjö.
Nissan River Path
Follow the winding course of the Nissan river as it snakes through the Halland countryside immediately after takeoff.
Simlångsdalen Valley
A lush, forested rift valley known for its dramatic topography and scenic hiking trails visible from lower altitudes.
Lake Bolmen (North)
View the northern expanse of Sweden's tenth largest lake, dotted with numerous small islands and pristine shorelines.
Kronoberg Castle Ruins
As you descend into Växjö, look for the historic 15th-century castle ruins situated on the shores of Lake Helgasjön.
Helgasjön Overview
A beautiful final view of the large lake surrounding the northern side of Växjö just before touchdown at VXO.
For the most scenic experience, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the deep blues of the lakes. Keep your camera ready during the final 5 minutes of the flight for the best views of the Kronoberg ruins on the left wing side.
Laholm Bay Glimpse
Upon departure, catch a glimpse of the sweeping sandy coastline of the Kattegat sea to the south.
Fylleån River Valley
An agricultural corridor following the Fylleån river, showcasing the transition from coastal plains to highland forests.
Lake Unnen
A long, narrow lake situated just west of Bolmen, often sparkling under the afternoon sun.
Småland Forest Canopy
Witness the vast, unbroken carpet of spruce and pine that defines the 'Kingdom of Crystal' region.
Växjö Southern Outskirts
A view of the city's residential expansion and smaller southern lakes like Salen during the final approach.
The right side is excellent for late afternoon flights to catch the 'golden hour' reflecting off the myriad of small forest ponds. Watch for the distinct change in soil color and vegetation density as the plane crosses the border into the Småland highlands.
