Lake Michigan Shoreline
Constant views of the vast blue water and the sandy bluffs along the coast.
Milwaukee Skyline
A clear view of downtown Milwaukee, the Hoan Bridge, and the lakefront Art Museum.
Port of Milwaukee
Industrial activity and shipping vessels clustered around the harbor area.
Niagara Escarpment
The dramatic limestone cliffs of High Cliff State Park on the east shore of Lake Winnebago.
Lambeau Field
The iconic home of the Green Bay Packers is often visible during the final descent from the south.
Fox River Bridges
Multiple historic and modern bridges spanning the river as you enter Green Bay.
The right side is the definitive choice for scenery on this route. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of Milwaukee's lakefront. For the best lighting, take a morning flight when the sun illuminates the coastline and city buildings. If landing toward the north, keep your eyes peeled for the bright green field of Lambeau Field just a few minutes before touchdown.

Choose the left side for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Wisconsin plains. Look for the Horicon Marsh roughly halfway through the flight, which is most vibrant during the autumn migration season.
