Munich Cityscape
Upon departure, enjoy views of the Bavarian capital and the Allianz Arena if the flight path tracks south of the airport.
The Alpine Chain
A constant companion to the south, featuring the Zugspitze and the Allgäu Alps clearly visible in the distance.
Bavarian Lakes
Clear views of Lake Starnberg and Ammersee shortly after takeoff from Munich.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
A magnificent view of Central Europe's third largest lake, including the shorelines of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
Swiss Pre-Alps
During descent towards Basel, the Säntis massif and the Appenzell Alps dominate the southern horizon.
Sit on the left to avoid direct sun glare when flying west during the afternoon. For the best Alpine views, a morning flight provides the clearest lighting on the snow-capped peaks. Ensure you are seated away from the wing to fully capture the vastness of Lake Constance.

Swabian Jura
The rugged plateau of the Schwäbische Alb stretches out with its characteristic limestone escarpments.
Upper Danube
The winding path of the Danube river as it flows through southwestern Germany.
Southern Black Forest
Dense evergreen forests and rolling peaks, including the Feldberg, the highest point in the region.
Freiburg im Breisgau
As the plane turns for the final approach into BSL, you can often see the historic city of Freiburg and its cathedral.
Upper Rhine Valley
The patchwork of vineyards and farmland in the fertile Rhine plain just before landing.
The right side is ideal for sunset flights, as you will see the sun dipping behind the Vosges Mountains in France. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain from the rocky Jura plateau to the deep greens of the Black Forest during the mid-flight transition.
