Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a more direct view of the sprawling Attawapiskat Lake shoreline upon departure and the intricate muskeg patterns that define the remote landscape of Northern Ontario.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🛶

Attawapiskat Lake

Aerial view of the vast, island-dotted lake surrounding the takeoff point at Lansdowne House.

🌲

Boreal Wilderness

Uninterrupted views of the dense black spruce and tamarack forests of the Canadian Shield.

🧊

Muskeg Formations

Unique wetland patterns and peatlands that create fascinating geometric shapes from a low cruising altitude.

Sit on the left for the best view of the setting sun on evening flights. This side provides a better angle of the local islands as you climb out of YLH. Keep a lookout for moose in the marshy clearings during the early morning hours.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🌊

Winisk Lake Horizon

Expansive views of the water systems stretching toward the Hudson Bay Lowlands to the east.

🦅

River Tributaries

Intricate networks of small, winding rivers that feed the larger Attawapiskat drainage basin.

🛫

Webequie Approach

A clear view of the Webequie settlement and the Winisk Lake shoreline during the final descent.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to catch the sunrise reflecting off the numerous lakes. During winter, look for the high-contrast snow-covered ice roads that connect these remote communities. Since it is a short flight, have your camera ready immediately upon takeoff.
