Vysotsk prayer times overview
For Vysotsk it is important to use precisely the city's prayer schedule: prayer times depend not only on the clock, but also on latitude, longitude and the position of the sun.
Local time in Vysotsk is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha are calculated based on this city's data specifically, not the country's average time.
Vysotsk geographic location is 60.6253°N, 28.5681°E. These coordinates are important for calculating prayer times, since prayers are tied to the movement of the sun. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Vysotsk prayer times should be compared with another city carefully: a small difference in coordinates can change the start of a prayer by several minutes. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
Today in Vysotsk the sun rises at 04:54, while Maghrib begins at 21:28. Daylight lasts 16 часов 34 минуты. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
In Vysotsk the period from Maghrib (21:28) to Fajr (02:55) lasts 5 часов 27 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.
In summer in Vysotsk there may be very bright nights: for this reason the Isha and Fajr times require special attention.

Questions about prayer times in Vysotsk
Prayer times are determined by the sun's altitude above the horizon, which is unique for every geographic point. The calculation is affected by latitude, longitude and the established time zone. For this reason, even cities located in the same region have different values for Fajr, Sunrise, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha. The more a city is shifted to the north or south, the more the daylight length, and with it the prayer moments, differ.
Prayer times in Vysotsk are updated daily. This is related to the constant shifting of the sunrise and sunset moments following the Earth's orbit around the sun. The changes are especially noticeable during the transitional seasons — spring and autumn — when the day length changes fastest, sometimes by several minutes per day. For the schedule to remain accurate, it should be checked daily, not once a week.
Of course. To end suhur, use the Fajr time (02:55) as a reference — the pre-dawn meal must be completed before it begins. The start of iftar coincides with the Maghrib time (21:28): the fast can be broken as soon as the sun sets below the horizon. Since prayer times shift daily during Ramadan, we recommend checking the schedule daily so as not to be off even by a minute.
Because Vysotsk is located far from the equator, white nights or conditions close to them are observed here in summer, and a very short day in winter. Under such a position of the sun, the classical calculation of Fajr and Isha no longer gives a correct result: twilight may last all night. So that believers can perform the prayer with confidence, the high-latitude adjustment method recommended by Islamic calculation centres is applied.
