About the time in Sarnen
Sarnen sits at latitude 46.90, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 57m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:32 and sunset at 08:29 local time, giving 13h 57m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (46.90, 8.18) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sarnen.
Sarnen is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +2 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
