Helgeland Archipelago
A vast network of over 6,000 islands and islets dotting the turquoise coastal waters.
Lofoten Wall
The dramatic granite peaks of the Lofoten islands rising directly out of the Norwegian Sea.
Vestfjorden
The wide fjord separating the Lofoten islands from the mainland, often clear and deep blue.
Vesterålen Islands
Rugged mountains interspersed with hidden white sand beaches and emerald green coves.
Sit behind the wing for an unobstructed view of the Lofoten wall, which appears about 40-50 minutes into the flight. In summer, the midnight sun ensures views 24/7, while in winter, look for the aurora borealis over the sea. This side provides better photography lighting during afternoon flights.

Svartisen Glacier
Norway's second-largest glacier, featuring stunning blue ice visible near the Arctic Circle.
Saltfjellet Mountains
High alpine plateaus and jagged peaks that define the border between Helgeland and Salten.
Bodø and Saltstraumen
View of the northern city and the world's strongest tidal current nearby.
Lyngen Alps
The spectacular, pointed peaks of the Lyngen peninsula appearing during the descent into Tromsø.
This side is superior for mountain and glacier enthusiasts. Watch for the Svartisen glacier shortly after crossing the Arctic Circle. During the final descent into TOS, the right side often gets a closer view of the mainland fjords and the Lyngen Alps. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the inland mountain ranges.
