What can you see from Arc de Triomphe?
360° terrain visibility analysis from Arc de Triomphe — observation point at 113 m, coordinates 48.8738, 2.2950.
From Arc de Triomphe, the terrain-limited line of sight reaches up to 49.8 km. The single farthest piece of visible terrain lies 49.8 km to the northwest (bearing 316°), at 223 m elevation. These results account for Earth's curvature and standard atmospheric refraction, computed from 30-meter resolution Copernicus GLO-30 elevation data across 1,923,110 terrain samples.

Frequently asked questions
How far can you see from Arc de Triomphe?
On a clear day the terrain allows a line of sight of up to 49.8 km from Arc de Triomphe. The average visible distance across all 360 directions is 18.4 km. Atmospheric conditions (haze, humidity) usually reduce practical visibility below the terrain-limited maximum.
What is the farthest point visible from Arc de Triomphe?
The farthest terrain visible from Arc de Triomphe lies 49.8 km to the northwest, at an elevation of 223 m. Earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction are accounted for in this calculation.
How high is Arc de Triomphe?
The observation point at Arc de Triomphe sits at 113 m above sea level (Copernicus GLO-30 elevation model).
How is this visibility map calculated?
UpToWhere traces lines of sight in 360 directions from the observer using 30 m-resolution Copernicus terrain data, correcting for Earth curvature and standard atmospheric refraction. You can run the same analysis for any point on Earth with the free calculator.
