About the sun in Kargil
In Kargil, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 14h 28m of daylight, and the shortest is 22 December, with 9h 50m: a difference of 4 hours 38 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 13 June (5:12 AM) and the latest sunset on 29 June (7:42 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year. Kargil lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 78.9° above the horizon, on 21 June.
