Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a front-row seat to the 'roof of Norway,' showcasing the dramatic elevation changes from the southern coast to the highest peaks of the Jotunheimen and the rugged western fjord edges.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Sørlandet Archipelago

Aerial view of the intricate coastline and scattered islands surrounding Kristiansand immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Hardangervidda Edge

Views across the western expanse of Europe's largest high-mountain plateau, often dotted with glacial lakes.

🏔️

Jotunheimen Peaks

Spotting the highest mountains in Northern Europe, including the massive Galdhøpiggen massif in the distance.

❄️

Jostedalsbreen Glimpse

On clear days, the distant white expanse of mainland Europe's largest glacier can be seen to the northwest.

🏞️

Trondheimsfjord Entrance

The dramatic transition from the open sea to the calm waters of the long fjord as the plane turns for its final approach.

Sit in the front half of the cabin to ensure the wing doesn't block your view of the Jotunheimen mountain range. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind or above you, lighting up the mountains to the west without causing glare on the window.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌲

Setesdal Valley

Looking down into the deep, forested valleys and winding river systems of the Agder and Telemark regions.

⛰️

Gaustatoppen

The prominent, lonely peak of Telemark is often visible to the east during the first half of the flight.

🏔️

Rondane National Park

The distinctive, rounded peaks of Norway's oldest national park offer a stark contrast to the sharper western mountains.

🐂

Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella

Fly over the home of the musk ox, featuring the massive and iconic peak of Snøhetta.

🏘️

Trondheim City

A fantastic view of the Nidaros Cathedral, the Tyholt tower, and the colorful wharf houses during the descent into Værnes.

The right side is superior for the landing phase; if the plane approaches from the west, you will get a perfect view of Trondheim city. This side also gets beautiful 'golden hour' light during morning flights as the sun rises over the Swedish border.
