Mythical, mystical and exhilarating….the chance to follow in the footsteps of great astrologers and intrepid pioneers…that’s what stargazing is all about. And the desert, away from atmospheric water vapor and the ‘light pollution’ of the cities offers the ideal place for you to indulge in your passion for worlds beyond our own.

The camp offers complete darkness and a powerful telescope in its own observatory room to gaze at stars and constellations you might otherwise never be able to see.

Tips for probing the mysteries of the Zodiac:

• The ideal stargazing night is moonless.
• There should be no wind and the night should be warm (not too cold and not too hot).
• Water vapor and temperature layers in the atmosphere as well as air pollution make a difference, so choose an isolated and deserted spot.
• If you plan to be out in the desert, dress very warmly – even in summers.
