High Atlas Mountains
Massive snow-capped peaks visible immediately after departure from Marrakech.
Rock of Gibraltar
The iconic limestone monolith standing guard at the entrance to the Mediterranean.
Sierra Nevada
Spain's highest peaks, including Mulhacén, often covered in snow well into spring.
The Pyrenees
A spectacular crossing of the rugged mountain border between Spain and France.
Massif Central
The unique volcanic landscape of central France, featuring extinct cinder cones.
Ardennes Forest

The right side is the best choice for mountain enthusiasts. Aim for a seat behind the wing for unobstructed views of the High Atlas. Pay close attention approximately 45 minutes into the flight for the crossing of the Strait of Gibraltar. If flying in winter, the snowy Pyrenees provide the most dramatic scenery of the entire route.
