OSY → TRD
Which side of the plane to sit from Namsos Høknesøra Airport (Namsos) to Trondheim Airport Værnes (Trondheim)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point of Norway's dramatic coastline, including the rugged Fosen Peninsula and the expansive Trondheimsfjord, culminating in a scenic approach into Værnes.
Folla Coastline
The rugged and jagged coastline where the Norwegian Sea meets the mainland.
Fosen Peninsula
High mountain plateaus and remote wilderness areas stretching toward the horizon.
Trondheimsfjord
Expansive views of the deep fjord, often dotted with cargo ships and local ferries.
Munkholmen
The tiny historical island fortress located just off the coast of Trondheim city.
Værnes Final Approach
A low-altitude sweep over the water and shoreline during the descent into the runway.
The right side is unbeatable for evening flights to catch sunsets over the Atlantic. During the winter, this side offers the best chance to spot the Aurora Borealis over the open sea if the timing is right. Look for the sharp contrast between the snowy Fosen mountains and the dark fjord waters.
Namsenfjorden
Scenic view of the fjord's head as the aircraft climbs out of Namsos.
Namdalen Valley
Dense pine forests and the winding Namsen river carving through the valley floor.
Lake Snåsavatnet
Norway's sixth-largest lake, offering reflective blue waters against a mountain backdrop.
Steinkjer Cityscape
A view of the regional hub located at the innermost point of the Trondheimsfjord.
Sit on the left for morning flights to see the sun illuminating the inland peaks. This side provides a better view of the agricultural heartland of Trøndelag as the flight progresses south toward the airport.
