Astronomy

Description

During our astronomy activity, we delve into the knowledge and interpretation of the night sky. With our certified Starlight night sky guides, you’ll learn to identify constellations and stars while discovering the rich mythology of the Pyrenees.

Using telescopes, we observe key deep-sky objects while savoring local Km0 infusions, traditional Pyrenean liqueurs, artisanal Pallars cheese, or a glass of wine.

Our activities take place in areas certified as Starlight destinations and reserves, offering skies virtually free of light pollution. This allows us to view countless stars, galaxies, and planets.

We provide two portable telescopes and all the necessary equipment to make the most of these starry nights.

If you want to quickly locate the Shepherd’s Star, discover the meaning of Saint John’s Star, or learn how stars are formed, this activity is for you.
