Golden hour in Yerevan in October

Yerevan lies at 40.18° N, in the mid-latitudes, where the seasons reshape the light noticeably. Its longest measured day falls on Thu 18 June 2026 with 15h 02m of daylight, and its shortest on Fri 18 December 2026 with 9h 19m — a difference of 5h 43m between the two extremes.

Evening golden hour in Yerevan runs for roughly 41 minutes at the height of summer, 36 minutes around the March equinox and 43 minutes at midwinter. The warm window is actually widest in the colder months, which makes winter evenings unusually forgiving here.

The sun sets toward 302° WNW in late June and toward 239° WSW in late December, a shift of about 63° in where the last light lands — worth checking before committing to a west-facing viewpoint. In Yerevan, the sky reaches full darkness between evening and morning twilight year-round.
