What To Expect

With low light pollution, incredible vantage points and vast horizons, it’s the perfect place (weather permitting), to see stars and the many constellations.

After a brief look at star constellations indoors, you’ll head out to view the night sky, and on the rare occasion, the Aurora Borealis. Stories and history of the area are covered too.

Flexibility is recommended for this experience in order to pick the best night for conditions.

Premium options at remote lodges available.
