Malham Cove Magical Dark Skies & Full Moon Experience with Adventures for the Soul
Saturday 1st March 2025 from 18:30pm to 21:30pm
Malham National Park Centre
Malham, Skipton, North Yorkshire, BD23 4DA
Steeped in mystery and myth, Malham promises to provide an adventure like no other…
A traverse down to Janet’s Foss in the dark exudes atmosphere on big shiny, full moons or when it is very dark. Yes, it’s spine-tingling, but-oh-so exhilarating! And you’ll discover more about the folklore of this magical place.
As we meander into the night, you’ll experience a sensory exploration led by Alison – a mindfulness instructor. Move slowly, you’ll discover how to reconnect to this big wide-world and dark sky above you in a completely different way. It will also magically bring you back to THIS precious moment, making your feel AMAZING.
You’ll stop every now and again to gaze in wonder at a sparkling, star-filled sky. View planets, constellations and the Milky Way arcing above. Or if you’re really lucky, see colourful meteors shooting through the atmosphere. Guided by Fabian – a specialist mountain leader and dark skies enthusiast – you’ll learn more about our own planet, the celestial heavens above and deep time. It’s utterly fascinating…
Of course the weather cannot be guaranteed, but even if it’s cloudy, scientists have now proved embracing the dark is good for the soul. Walking at night is an incredible experience that is invigorating, immersive and is a surprising mood-booster. What’s not to like?!
