About this list
Viewpoints are sourced from OpenStreetMap. Each locality visibility score is calculated for a single point inside it, which may not be the best observing spot in that locality. Use it as broad guidance, not as a precise recommendation.
Official observation points are those published by public authorities. Check the authority website for the most detailed and up-to-date information before travelling.
The ranking combines precise astronomical ephemerides with a digital terrain model to estimate real visibility at each point. It does not account for buildings, trees or other nearby obstructions, nor for access, safety or expected crowding on eclipse day. Always follow local authority guidance, respect authorised access and plan ahead.
