Search flights from OSD to ARN
Gulf of Bothnia
Dramatic views where the Swedish forest meets the Baltic Sea coastline.
Sundsvall Skyline
The industrial city and its large bridge across the Sundsvall bay.
Uppsala Cathedral
Visible as you approach Arlanda, the tallest church in Scandinavia.
Stockholm Archipelago
The northern edges of the vast island chain before landing.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. Look out for the transition from the rugged northern terrain to the flat agricultural plains of Uppland near the end of the journey. The approach to runway 01R or 19L often provides a perfect view of Uppsala's skyline.

Lake Siljan
The famous circular lake in Dalarna, formed by a meteor impact long ago.
