☀️ Sun Path View - Free Solar Analysis Tool

A sun path is the trajectory of the sun across the sky throughout the day and year. It's essential for photographers planning golden hour shots, architects designing buildings with optimal natural lighting, and gardeners understanding sunlight patterns for plant placement. Sun paths vary by location, season, and time of day.

Simply search for your location or click anywhere on the interactive map. Then select which sun paths to display: summer solstice (longest day), winter solstice (shortest day), or a specific date. The map will show the sun's path across the sky with precise sunrise and sunset times.

Summer solstice (June 21) represents the longest day of the year when the sun follows its highest, longest path across the sky. Winter solstice (December 21) is the shortest day when the sun follows its lowest, shortest path. This affects shadow lengths, lighting angles, and daylight duration.

Absolutely! This sun path calculator is perfect for photography planning. Use it to find the best times for golden hour, determine where shadows will fall, plan landscape shots, and predict lighting conditions. The tool shows precise sunrise and sunset times for any location and date.

Yes, this solar calculator works for any location worldwide using precise astronomical calculations. It accounts for latitude, longitude, and time zone differences. However, actual sun visibility may vary due to terrain, buildings, weather, and vegetation.
