Dark Sky Meander in Dalby Forest

Saturday 30th October 2021 from 17:00pm to 20:00pm

High Dalby House and Cottages
Dalby Forest Drive, Pickering, North Yorkshire, YO18 7LP

Experience an evening under incredibly dark skies in the fabulous Dalby Forest with Adventures for the Soul in collaboration with Go Stargazing.

Starting at High Dalby House, you’ll enjoy warming drinks and delicious hot food prepared by our wonderful hosts, Ian and Linda.

Then, you’ll go on a sensory night-time walk to experience the sights and sounds of the forest, culminating in a tour of the night skies with astronomer Dr Fred and observing amazing objects using a telescope. If it’s a cloudy evening, Fred has a few things lined up indoors, so you’ll still learn lots and be amazed!

Please note that this has already taken place on 30/10/2021

Event darkness

The Moon has a big impact on the visibility of celestial bodies in the night sky. Try to plan your stargazing when there is no bright Moon at night as this is when the skies will be at their darkest.

The below chart shows if and when the skies will be at their darkest during this event. Moonlight is shown in light yellow and the Sun's twilight in light blue. Midnight on the date shown is shown as a white line with sunset to the left and sunrise the next morning to the right. A black background with stars shows the best times for stargazing.
