Nordfjord View
A sweeping view of the inner Nordfjord branches as the aircraft traverses south towards Sogn.
Jostedalsbreen Glimpses
On clear days, the distant white expanse of mainland Europe's largest glacier is visible to the east.
Sognefjord Crossing
The plane flies directly over the 'King of Fjords,' offering views deep into the Aurlandsfjord area.
Stølsheimen Mountains
Rugged highland plateaus characterized by glacial erosion and small mountain lakes.
Sit on the left for the most dramatic mountain scenery. For morning flights, this side provides excellent lighting on the peaks. During the winter, the snow-covered Sunnmøre Alps are particularly breathtaking. Look out early in the flight for the sharpest mountain profiles.

The windswept and exposed coastal edge where the North Sea meets the Norwegian Sea.
Hornelen Sea Cliff
A chance to see Europe's highest sea cliff, which rises 860 meters vertically from the water.
Solund Archipelago
A complex network of thousands of islands and skerries located at the mouth of the Sognefjord.
Fedje Island
Known as the 'Village in the Sea,' this remote island community is a landmark during the descent.
Bergen Coastal Approach
Panoramic views of the island chains surrounding Flesland and the North Sea horizon.
Choose the right side for sunset flights to catch the light reflecting off the Atlantic. This side is better for those interested in maritime geography and coastal infrastructure. Keep your eyes peeled for the distinct flat-topped mountains near the coast like Alden.
