Walk through Knoyle Park to your viewing spot. The park is a 17-minute walk from Morris Castle, so arrive early to find a clear line of sight toward the east-northeast where the castle sits.

Watch the sunrise. On the specified dates, the sun rises directly behind Morris Castle from Knoyle Park. The light appears around 07:30 local time.
08:15
Head to Jenkins Bakery for breakfast. It is an 11-minute walk from the anchor. By this time, the bakery will be open (opens at 07:00 on weekdays, 09:00 on Sundays) and ready to serve fresh pastries or coffee to warm you up after the cold morning.
Local tip
Check the route to Knoyle Park in advance, as the walk from the castle is 17 minutes and the area is residential. If you are visiting on a Sunday, note that Jenkins Bakery opens at 09:00, so you may need to wait or adjust your timing if you want to eat immediately after the sunrise.
