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
