Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an unparalleled perspective of the rugged Norwegian coastline and the intricate network of thousands of islands forming the Vikna archipelago during the descent into Rørvik.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Trondheimsfjord Exit

Aerial views of the mouth of Norway's third-longest fjord as the plane heads north.

⛰️

Fosen Peninsula

The rugged, mountainous coastline of Fosen with its hidden coves and small fishing villages.

🌅

Atlantic Horizon

Unobstructed views of the Norwegian Sea, particularly stunning during the long Nordic summer sunsets.

🏝️

Vikna Archipelago

A spectacular cluster of approximately 6,000 islands and islets visible during the final approach.

⚓

Coastal Shipping Lane

Occasional sightings of the Hurtigruten or coastal steamers navigating the inner leads.

Choose the left side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic. The descent into Rørvik is fast, so keep your camera ready as soon as the descent starts to capture the island maze. In winter, the low sun creates dramatic shadows across the coastal mountains.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🚜

Innherred Farmland

The fertile agricultural heartland of Trøndelag, often called the breadbasket of the north.

🌲

Namdalen Forests

Vast stretches of deep spruce and pine forests that characterize the interior of the region.

🏞️

Namsen River

One of Norway's most famous salmon rivers winding its way through the valley toward Namsos.

🌉

Nærøysund Bridge

The iconic suspension bridge that connects the mainland to the island of Vikna near the airport.

The right side provides a better sense of the scale of the Norwegian mainland and the transition from forest to fjord. Look for the snowy peaks of Børgefjell National Park on the distant eastern horizon during clear days. This side is often calmer for photography as it faces away from the direct glare of the afternoon sun.
