Varanger Peninsula
The dramatic, treeless tundra landscape meeting the cold waters of the Barents Sea.
Nordkinn Peninsula
The rugged cliffs of the northernmost point of mainland Europe visible in the distance.
Hammerfest & Melkøya
Views of the world's northernmost town and the glowing lights of the LNG processing plant.
Lyngen Alps
Spectacular, jagged peaks rising 1,800 meters directly from the fjords; a highlight of the route.
Tromsø Island
The aerial view of the city, the Tromsø Bridge, and the Arctic Cathedral during the descent.
The right side is superior for coastal scenery. Aim for a window seat to see the deep blue fjords and the majestic Lyngen Alps about 15-20 minutes before landing. In summer, the Midnight Sun provides stunning golden hour light on the peaks throughout the night.
