OSL → TRD
Which side of the plane to sit from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo) to Trondheim Airport Værnes (Trondheim)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views of Norway's central mountain ranges, including the iconic Rondane and Dovrefjell massifs, and often provides a direct view of Trondheim city during the descent.
Rondane National Park
Norway's oldest national park featuring ten peaks over 2,000 meters with deep, dramatic glacial valleys.
Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella
High alpine plateau home to wild muskoxen and the majestic Snøhetta peak rising above the landscape.
Trondheimsfjord
Breathtaking views of Norway's third-longest fjord as the aircraft begins its final descent into Værnes.
Trondheim Cityscape
Aerial view of the Nidaros Cathedral and the colorful wooden wharves along the Nidelva river.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Afternoon flights are ideal for the Left Side as the sun illuminates the Western mountain faces. During winter flights, the snow-covered peaks of Dovrefjell are exceptionally clear under moonlight or twilight.
Lake Mjøsa
A stunning view of Norway's largest lake and the surrounding fertile farmland of Hedmark shortly after takeoff.
Østerdalen Valley
Continuous views of Norway's longest river, the Glomma, winding through vast, deep coniferous forests.
Sylan Mountains
The rugged mountain chain marking the border between Norway and Sweden visible on the eastern horizon.
Stjørdal Valley
Direct views of the lush agricultural valley and the Stjørdalelva river as the plane aligns with the runway.
The right side is perfect for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Swedish border. It provides a more tranquil landscape of endless forests and the massive Lake Mjøsa. Watch for the 'Skibladner' paddle steamer on the lake during summer months.
