Granite Massifs
Spectacular views of the sharp, alpine-style peaks that define the Kujalleq wilderness.
Vatnahverfi Valleys
The lush, green-tinted valleys known for their history as Viking farming settlements.
Qaqortoq Panorama
A stunning view of Greenland's most colorful town tiered like an amphitheater around the harbor during the final approach.
Fjord Network
Intricate views of the Alluitsup Kangerlua fjord system carving deep into the mainland.
The right side is essential for seeing the dramatic contrast between the deep fjords and the mountains. Late afternoon flights are particularly beautiful as the low sun casts long shadows over the granite cliffs, highlighting the geological textures. Keep your camera ready for the final 60 seconds of the flight for the best view of the town.

Labrador Sea
Vast views of the North Atlantic where the cold currents meet the rugged coastline.
Iceberg Alley
Frequent sightings of massive blue-tinted icebergs drifting north along the coast from the Denmark Strait.
Outer Archipelagos
A bird's eye view of the countless uninhabited rocky islets that shield the mainland from the open sea.
The left side is premier for iceberg spotting, particularly in the spring and early summer when the 'Storis' pack ice is prevalent. Opt for a morning flight to avoid the direct afternoon sun reflecting off the water, which can obscure detail.
