Which side of the plane to sit from Kristiansund Airport (Kvernberget) (Kristiansund) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point over Norway's most dramatic landscape features, including the highest peaks of the Jotunheimen mountains and the iconic fjords of the Møre og Romsdal region.
The Atlantic Road
The world-famous 'Atlanterhavsveien' bridges connecting the coastal islands can often be spotted just south of the airport.
Romsdal Alps
Stunning views of the jagged peaks around Åndalsnes and the famous Troll Wall (Trollveggen).
Jotunheimen Peaks
Galdhøpiggen and Glittertind, Northern Europe's highest mountains, are visible mid-flight.
Tyrifjorden
A deep blue lake surrounded by forests, signaling the final approach into Gardermoen.
Oslofjord
Depending on the landing direction, you may see the northern tip of the fjord and its numerous islands.
This is the premier side for mountain lovers. For the best photography, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the scale of Jotunheimen. In winter, the sun remains low in the south, illuminating the peaks with a golden 'Alpenglow' effect. Watch the ground closely 5-10 minutes after takeoff for the distinctive zig-zag bridges of the Atlantic Road.
Kristiansund Archipelago
Aerial views of the unique island-based layout of Kristiansund immediately after takeoff.
Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella
The rugged, wild plateau home to the muskox and the massive Snøhetta peak to the east.
Lake Mjøsa
Norway's largest lake comes into view during the descent into the Oslo region.
Glomma River
The winding path of Norway's longest river as it cuts through the forested valleys of Viken.
Sit on the left for early morning flights to avoid direct glare while viewing the inland plateaus. Keep your camera ready during the initial climb to capture the grid-like islands of the town. During the winter months, this side often sees the first light hitting the eastern slopes of the mountains.
