It is possible to stand just outside the fence on the hill next to the main road to the airport from the east (primary route 28) (location A on the map below). There is a good overview of the runway because of the runway slope. It is generally not a good idea to park at the side of the road, however, getting to the location by foot requires an approximately 4 km. walk from the terminal area. The wind is usually western, so runway 27 is in use most days. | It is possible to stand just outside the fence on the hill next to the main road to the airport from the east (primary route 28) (location A on the map below).

It is also possible to continue west a bit further to get a better view of planes taking off from runway 09 and planes on final approach. Simply follow the road west from the terminal, keeping to the left (location B on the map below).

On the south side of the airport (drive past Legoland, turn left into Firhojevej and past Lalandia Resort and the cargo/maintenance hangers and carry for another 1km) there is an open area of grass where you can park and have excellent views of airport landing and taking off on runway 27. | On the south side of the airport (drive past Legoland, turn left into Firhojevej and past Lalandia Resort and the cargo/maintenance hangers and carry for another 1km) there is an open area of grass where you can park and have excellent views of airport landing and taking off on runway 27. | ||
