Oslofjord Southern Reach
Upon takeoff from TRF, enjoy bird's-eye views of the intricate Norwegian archipelago and the coastal towns of Sandefjord and Tønsberg.
Skagerrak Crossing
Deep blue waters where the North Sea meets the Baltic, often dotted with international shipping vessels navigating toward Oslo or Gothenburg.
Jutland Coastline
Depending on the airway, you may see the long, sandy beaches of Denmark's west coast, particularly around the Thy National Park area.
Wadden Sea National Park
A UNESCO World Heritage site featuring mesmerizing tidal flats, sandbanks, and the Dutch Frisian Islands like Texel and Vlieland.
The Afsluitdijk
The famous 32-kilometer long causeway that separates the IJsselmeer from the Wadden Sea, visible as a perfectly straight line through the water.
IJsselmeer Polders
The reclaimed land of Flevoland, characterized by perfectly rectangular fields and modern wind turbines as you descend.
For the best visibility of the Wadden Sea's intricate patterns, aim for a flight during the day with clear weather. If landing on the Polderbaan (18R), the left side provides excellent views of the North Holland countryside and the approach over the reclaimed polders.
