Nizhny Novgorod

The striking meeting point of the Volga and Oka rivers, featuring the historic Kremlin on the hill.

๐Ÿฐ

Moscow City Silhouette

On clear days, the 'Moscow City' cluster of skyscrapers can be seen rising from the horizon if the flight path tracks north of the capital.

๐Ÿ’ง

Masurian Lake District

Thousands of small, glinting lakes scattered across Northeastern Poland, especially vibrant in the afternoon light.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Kruลกnรฉ hory (Ore Mountains)

The dramatic ridge defining the Czech-German border, providing a stunning backdrop during the descent into KLV.

The right side is perfect for sunset flights, offering golden hour views over the Polish lakes and the Bohemian landscape. Ensure you are looking out about 20 minutes before landing for the most dramatic mountain scenery near the Czech border.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Southern Ural Foothills

Catch the rolling transitions between the Siberian plains and the ancient Ural range immediately after takeoff.

๐ŸŒฒ

Bialowieza Forest

Warsaw Surroundings

The southern suburbs of the Polish capital and the Vistula river snaking through the plains.

Slavkov Forest

A lush protected landscape area just south of Karlovy Vary visible during the final approach.

The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct glare, though afternoon flights may experience harsh sun. Keep an eye out for the vast agricultural patchwork of Central Poland which creates a beautiful geometric mosaic in late spring and summer.
