Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for viewing the dramatic transition from the southern mountains to the high-altitude plateau of Hardangervidda and the spectacular Folgefonna glacier.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Setesdalsheiene Mountains

Vast, snow-capped mountain ranges and deep valleys that define the interior of Southern Norway.

❄️

Folgefonna Glacier

One of Norway's largest glaciers, its massive white expanse is often visible as the plane nears the Hardanger region.

💧

Hardangerfjord

Stunning views into the deep, winding branches of the 'Queen of Fjords' just before beginning the final approach.

The right side is best for morning flights as the sun illuminates the mountain peaks and glaciers. Keep your camera ready as the plane passes over the Odda area for some of the most dramatic terrain in the country.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Skagerrak Coastline

Aerial views of the rugged southern shoreline and the numerous small islands dotting the coast near Kristiansand.

⚓

Stavanger Archipelago

As the flight progresses northwest, the left side overlooks the intricate network of islands and fjords surrounding Stavanger.

🏝️

Bømlo and Stord

Large, green coastal islands with traditional Norwegian settlements visible during the descent into Bergen.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare while enjoying the shimmering reflection of the sun on the North Sea. This side is better for spotting offshore oil installations on clear days.
