Kraków Region
Aerial views of southern Poland's historical landscapes and the winding upper Vistula River.
High Tatras
On clear days, the sharp, snow-capped peaks of the Tatra Mountains are visible on the far southern horizon.
Sudetes Range
The Karkonosze mountains forming a natural border between Poland and the Czech Republic.
Thuringian Forest
A massive, continuous stretch of dark green hills and forests in the heart of Germany.
Signal Iduna Park
Dortmund's iconic football stadium may be visible depending on the specific landing pattern used.
For afternoon flights, the sun will be behind the aircraft, providing excellent lighting on the mountain ranges to the south. Keep an eye out for the transition from the agricultural plains of Ukraine into the more rugged terrain of Southern Poland. In winter, the Sudetes mountains are particularly striking when covered in snow.

Dortmund Port

During the descent, you can spot the industrial heritage sites and modern logistic centers that define the northern edge of the Ruhr region.
