Look through park telescopes at some of the key features of the night sky - planets, stars, and more. Under the guidance of our volunteers and staff, embark on an amazing telescope tour of the night sky. We'll run the scopes, you'll enjoy the view! 

 

🗺️Where: Use entrance here, park in the lot. Walk around the hill to the viewing field, the Night Sky Public Viewing Area.

💼Bring: Red-light flashlight, a jacket and blankets, and a folding/camp chair.

🚫Leave at home: Pets (only trained service animals allowed), alcohol, recreational drugs. 

 

➡️ Check the Clear Sky Chart or AccuWeather Stargazing Forecasts for 48-hour forecasts of cloud cover and viewing conditions.

 

All programs will be cancelled in the event of rain or thunder/lightning. 

 

We ask that park visitors please leave their pets at home. Dim lighting, large crowds and sensitive equipment do not create a pet-friendly environment. 

 

Telescopes available on a first-come, first-serve basis for the time listed. Availability is subject to staff/volunteer availability, weather conditions, and crowd size limitations.
