Oslofjord Islands
Aerial perspective of the densely packed islands and summer cabins near Oslo and Nesodden.
Vestfold Coastline
Clear views of coastal towns like Tønsberg and Sandefjord meeting the blue waters of the Skagerrak.
Færder Lighthouse
Look for the iconic lighthouse marking the entrance to the Oslofjord at the tip of the Tjøme peninsula.
Sørlandet Archipelago
The intricate network of polished granite islands and hidden coves that define the Southern Norway aesthetic.
Kristiansand City
A glimpse of the city center's 'Kvadraturen' grid layout just before touchdown at Kjevik.
Sit on the left for the best coastal views. During afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, which can create high-contrast reflections on the water. Early morning flights offer soft, golden light over the fjords. This side is particularly spectacular in summer when the sea is dotted with white sailboats.

Nordmarka Forests
The vast green lung of Oslo visible immediately after takeoff from Gardermoen.
Telemark Mountains
The rugged interior landscape of Telemark, featuring steep valleys and high plateaus.
Gaustatoppen
On clear days, the iconic 1,883-meter peak can be seen sticking out in the distant northwest.
Norsjø Lake
One of Norway's large inland lakes, surrounded by fertile fruit-growing regions.
Agder Wilderness
Deep forests and numerous small lakes characterize the descent into the southern interior.
Choose the right side if you prefer inland mountain scenery over the ocean. This side is ideal for afternoon flights as you avoid direct sunlight, making it easier to take photos of the Telemark peaks. In winter, the snow-covered mountains of the interior are far more dramatic from this side than the coastal view.
