Just walk north from the terminals to the DHL freight terminal, then continue out on the small parking lot and follow the fence. From this place you can get photos under the planes and from the sides. Just be aware of the wet ground out here!

===Runway 21 - Afternoon===
===Runway 21 - Afternoon/evening===
 
(Updated May 2016)
The north perimeter around the runway is not accessible without a permit. Swedavia employees patrol the area and will inform you, kindly but firmly, that nobody is allowed on the roads leading to decent plainspotting locations. There are signs in every dirt road leading to the fence. Only residents and people with permits can cross the railway crossing northwest of runway 21. Access is not even allowed if you walk or cycle.
 
Both at this point (57°41'13.9"N 12°15'51.7"E) and further to the east (57°41'9.7"N 12°16'56.4"E) the signs are very clear, no authorised person may enter the area leading to the airfield. Hjörtemysten, a small hill across the Motorway 40, would be a prime spot but at the moment of writing this is not legally accessible.

This is a bit tricky to get to and you need a car. From Landvetter drive the old road towards the airport. Take right onto a small dirt road and follow the map below. The red line is by car, and the green line is by foot. <br />
