Stargazing Night at Fell Foot
Join us for a night learning about the universe and stargazing on the shores of Windermere.
Explore the wonders of the winter night sky. Our astronomy experts will take you on a whistle stop tour of the universe on the big screen. You’ll learn about stars, planets and galaxies and our place in the universe.
Then, weather permitting, we will head outside and get hands-on using telescopes and binoculars to go in search of sparkling star clusters, distant galaxies and some giant planets.
Most suitable for adults and children over 12. Those with children under 12 are recommended to join us for the family-orientated session taking place earlier in the evening.
Please note if the weather is poor or cloudy the event will still go ahead. Our astronomers will instead take more time to take you on a virtual tour of the universe on the screen!
Please note:
- Please park and head for the Active Base. Members of our team will be there to meet you and direct you.
- Bring a torch and binoculars if you have them. Please wear warm clothing. Please also wear suitable footwear for walking on a footpath which is well graded but slightly rough in places.
- The venue is wheelchair accessible.
- This event is aimed at adults & children over 12. Under 16's must be accompanied by an adult.
- Warm drinks (tea/coffee/hot chocolate) and biscuits will be available throughout the evening.
- If the weather is poor or cloudy, the event will still go ahead. Our astronomers will instead take more time to take you on a virtual tour of the universe on the screen!
