Torghatten
The legendary mountain with a distinct hole through its center, visible near Brønnøysund.
Vega Archipelago
A UNESCO World Heritage site consisting of a vast network of islands, islets, and reefs.
The Seven Sisters
The famous 'De syv søstre' mountain range that rises steeply from the ocean near Sandnessjøen.
Helgeland Coastline
An intricate coastal landscape of turquoise waters and white sandy beaches reminiscent of the tropics.
Coastal Traffic
Look for the Hurtigruten or Havila ships navigating the narrow inner leads of the coastline.
For the best visibility of the islands and Torghatten, book a window seat on the left. On morning flights, the sun illuminates the coast from the east, providing perfect lighting for photography. These flights are typically operated by Dash-8 aircraft with high wings, ensuring unobstructed views from almost any window seat.

Okstindan Range
Home to the Okstindbreen glacier and the highest mountain peaks in Northern Norway.
Røssvatnet Lake
Norway's second-largest lake, which serves as a massive reservoir surrounded by snow-capped peaks.
The right side is ideal for views of the dramatic inland mountain ranges and glaciers. In late autumn and winter, this side is preferable for spotting the Northern Lights, as it faces away from the coastal city lights. During the descent into Mo i Rana, you will see the deep valleys and rivers carving through the landscape.
