Search flights from RVK to MQN
Vega Archipelago
A breathtaking view of over 6,500 islands, reefs, and skerries, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site for its unique cultural landscape.
The Seven Sisters
The 'De Syv Søstre' mountain range features seven distinct peaks aligned along the coast, offering a majestic silhouette against the sea.
Lovund Island
The striking, steep-sided island known for its massive puffin colony, visible as a lone peak far out in the ocean.
Dønnamannen
A prominent mountain on Dønna island that resembles the profile of a man lying on his back, a classic landmark of the region.
Helgelandskysten
View of the intricate 'Kystriksveien' coastal route, weaving through turquoise waters and endless small fishing villages.
Sit on the left for the best coastal panoramas. For morning flights, the sun will be behind you, illuminating the islands perfectly. In summer, the 24-hour daylight ensures visibility even on late-night legs, while winter flights offer a high chance of spotting the Aurora Borealis over the open ocean.

Svartisen Glacier
Depending on the approach path, you may spot the edge of Norway's second-largest glacier glistening in the distance to the north.
Okstindan Range
Views of the 'Roof of Northern Norway,' featuring Oksskolten, the highest peak in the region at 1,916 meters.
Ranfjorden
The final approach follows this deep, scenic fjord that cuts 68 kilometers inland toward Mo i Rana.
Nordland Forests
Dense taiga forests and steep valley walls that define the rugged interior transition between the coast and the Swedish border.
Røssvoll Descent
A dramatic descent between high ridges as the aircraft aligns with the runway at Mo i Rana Airport.
The right side is ideal for mountain lovers and those interested in the deep glacial valleys. Watch for the sharp contrast between the coastal fjords and the snow-capped interior peaks. This side often gets better views of the 'Hole in the Mountain' (Torghatten) if the flight path swings slightly south after takeoff from Rørvik.
