RRS → OSL
Which side of the plane to sit from Røros Airport (Roros) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for viewing the dramatic interior mountain ranges, including the sharp peaks of Rondane and the vast plateaus of the Norwegian highlands.
Rondane National Park
Spot the distinctive pyramid-shaped peaks of Norway's oldest national park rising sharply in the distance.
Forollhogna Plateau
A massive mountain plateau visible shortly after takeoff, known for being the habitat of wild reindeer.
Lillehammer & Mjøsa
During the descent, views of the 1994 Olympic city and the northern tip of Lake Mjøsa, Norway's largest lake.
Dovrefjell Glimpses
On clear days, the distant massive peaks of the Dovrefjell range are visible far to the west.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun illuminates the mountain peaks to the west. Keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes into the flight for the best views of the Rondane range.
Røros Mining Town
Immediately after takeoff, see the historic UNESCO-listed wooden buildings and the iconic stone church of the mining town.
Glomma River
Watch the winding path of Norway's longest river as it snakes through the valley floors of Østerdalen.
Østerdalen Forests
Dense stretches of boreal forest dominate the landscape, providing a lush green or snowy white carpet depending on the season.
Rena Region
Glimpses of the military installations and the surrounding wilderness areas typical of eastern Norway's inland terrain.
Sit on the left for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Glomma River. It's also the best side for a final close-up look at Røros’s unique geography if the plane departs towards the south.
