Best spots to watch the 2026 total solar eclipse near Huesca

By Lluís Gassó · updated August 2026

On 12 August 2026 the Moon's shadow sweeps across Aragón around sunset, roughly 20:25–20:35 local time (CEST). Because the eclipsed Sun sits low over the western horizon, where you stand matters — a hill to your west can hide the whole thing. Below are the best-rated viewing spots within about 50 km of Huesca, scored from sun height, an open western horizon (from a 30 m terrain model) and length of totality.
