Evenes to Bergen is 659 miles (1,061 km), a flight of about 2 hours.
Right-side seats capture the most dramatic scenery on both legs: the Ofoten Islands and fjord system during takeoff, and the approach to Bergen's fjord-dominated landscape during descent. The right side offers more continuous visual interest across the entire flight.
Flight Path
The flight path crosses the Trøndelag region and passes near the Trondheimsfjord area. Mid-flight, passengers may see the Scandinavian mountain spine with numerous smaller fjords cutting eastward. The terrain transitions from the dramatic Arctic fjord landscape of northern Norway to the more heavily forested and glaciated regions approaching western Norway. Notable features include the Sognefjord (Europe's longest fjord) visible to the left during descent, and the transition from sparse vegetation to dense forest coverage as the aircraft moves south.
