Tlemcen Mountains
Dramatic limestone cliffs and verdant plateaus visible immediately after takeoff from Zenata.
Chlef River Valley
The winding path of Algeria's longest river through a rich agricultural landscape of orchards and fields.
Tell Atlas Range
Continuous views of the rugged mountain peaks that separate the coast from the High Plateaus.
Mount Chréa
The high-altitude cedar forests and peaks of the Blida Atlas, often covered in snow during winter months.
The right side is highly recommended for geographic variety. In winter and early spring, the contrast between the green valleys and snow-capped Atlas peaks is breathtaking. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting as the sun illuminates the mountain ridges from the southwest. Monitor the descent phase closely for the best views of the Chréa mountain massif.

Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea stretching toward Europe.
Gulf of Oran
A distant look at the historic port city of Oran and the Santa Cruz fortress on the coastline.
Tipaza Coastline
The stunning turquoise waters and rocky coves near the ancient Roman ruins of Tipaza.
Algiers Waterfront
A beautiful view of the 'White City' and its amphitheater-like layout surrounding the bay during final approach.
Sit on the left if you prefer the calming views of the sea and the coastal strip. Morning flights are best on this side to avoid the harsh southern sun glare. During the final approach into Algiers, keep an eye out for the Monument of the Martyrs standing prominently on the hills.
