Hohe Tauern Alps
A spectacular crossing of the Austrian Alps, often featuring snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys.

Wadden Sea
The unique tidal flats and barrier islands of the North Sea coast near the German-Danish border.
Oslofjord Entrance
The scenic transition from the open sea to the forested islands and narrow channels leading to Rygge.
For the best lighting on the Adriatic islands, a morning flight is ideal. Keep your camera ready within the first 10 minutes of flight. When approaching Norway, the left side provides the most dramatic views of the fjord's western banks. In winter, the alpine section is particularly breathtaking but requires clear skies.

Øresund Region

The right side is generally better for avoiding the direct glare of the sun on afternoon flights heading north. It offers a great view of the Velebit range early on. If the arrival into Rygge involves a northern loop, the right side may get a brief but excellent view of the Østfold landscape.
