Circles of latitude
Following arecircles of latitude between the 60th parallel north and the 65th parallel north :
61st parallel north [ edit ] The61st parallel north is acircle of latitude that is 61degrees north of theEarth's equatorial plane . It crosses theAtlantic Ocean ,Europe ,Asia andNorth America .
At this latitude thesun is visible for 19 hours, 16 minutes during thesummer solstice and 5 hours, 32 minutes during thewinter solstice .[ 1]
This latitude also roughly corresponds to the minimum latitude in whichcivil twilight can last all night near the summer solstice.
Starting at thePrime Meridian and heading eastwards, the parallel 61° north passes through:
