The Lofoten Wall
The spectacular granite ridge of the Lofoten islands stretching south, appearing as a continuous wall of mountains from the air.
Svolvær Archipelago
Look for the 'capital' of Lofoten, Svolvær, and its iconic 'Svolværgeita' rock pinnacle nestled between mountains and sea.
Skrova Island
A tiny, photogenic island community in the Vestfjorden known for its white sand beaches and lighthouse.
Vestfjorden Crossing
A panoramic view of the wide fjord that separates the Lofoten archipelago from the Norwegian mainland.
Landegode Island
The dramatic, jagged silhouette of Landegode island serves as a majestic final landmark just before descending into Bodø.
The right side is the definitive choice for the 'Lofoten experience.' For evening flights in summer, you will witness the Midnight Sun casting a golden glow over the island peaks. During the short 25-35 minute flight, stay alert immediately after takeoff as the most dramatic peaks appear quickly. Choose a window seat forward of the wing for the clearest view of the islands descending into the sea.

Møysalen National Park
Catch glimpses of the jagged 1,262m peak of Møysalen, the highest mountain in Vesterålen/Lofoten, often snow-capped year-round.
Hadselfjord Crossing
Looking down into the deep blue waters separating Hadseløya from the massive island of Hinnøya immediately after takeoff.
Sjunkhatten National Park
As you approach Bodø, the mainland side reveals 'The Children's National Park' with its distinctively smooth, glacier-carved granite peaks.
Lødingen Village
A view of the strategic coastal village at the entrance to the Ofotfjord, a key maritime hub for Northern Norway.
The left side is superior for sunrise views during winter months when the sun stays low over the mainland. It provides a better perspective of the deep mainland fjords and the massive Hinnøya island. Sit toward the rear to keep the engine/wing from obstructing the mountain peaks.
