Vestfold Archipelago
Immediately after takeoff, witness the dense cluster of islands and summer cabins surrounding the Sandefjord and Tønsberg coast.
Blindleia Waterway
A famous sheltered sailing route near Lillesand, visible as a narrow passage between the mainland and a protective shield of islands.
Kristiansand City
A clear aerial view of the 'Capital of the South,' including its gridded city center (Kvadraturen) and busy harbor.
Lindesnes Lighthouse
The southernmost point of mainland Norway, marked by the historic lighthouse standing against the crashing waves of the North Sea.
Jæren Beaches
On final approach to Stavanger, the rocky coast turns into long, stunning stretches of sandy beaches characteristic of the Jæren region.
Sit on the left for the best coastal landmarks. This side is especially beautiful during afternoon flights when the sun highlights the white coastal towns, though glare can be an issue—polarizing sunglasses are recommended. Look out for the transition from the rocky eastern islands to the flat, sandy beaches of Sola just before landing.

Telemark Highlands
Views of the rugged interior mountains and deep forested valleys of the Telemark region shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Lake Nisser
One of the largest inland lakes in the region, appearing as a long, narrow blue ribbon carved into the mountainous landscape.
Setesdalsheiene Peaks
High mountain plateaus that often retain snow patches well into the summer months, offering a stark contrast to the coast.
Hydroelectric Reservoirs
Spot the turquoise-colored dams and reservoirs in the mountains that fuel Norway's renewable energy grid.
Ryfylke Mountains
As you approach the west, the mountains become steeper and more dramatic, signaling the entrance to the fjord country.
The right side is ideal for passengers who prefer dramatic mountain scenery over maritime views. It typically offers better lighting conditions during midday flights as you are looking away from the sun. Watch for the sharp change in terrain as the flight crosses from the rounded hills of the east to the more jagged peaks of the west.
