Dark Sky meander & Stargazing - Dalby Forest

We're very excited about these experiences. Run in partnership with High Dalby House - a fabulous boutique retreat - you're in for a real treat. 

And the location couldn't be more perfect. Set in the middle of Dalby Forest, it's been confirmed it's the darkest place in North York Moors. High Dalby House even has its own observatory! 

But first, there'll be warming drinks and delicious hot food all prepared by our wonderful hosts, Ian and Linda, from High Dalby House. 

Afterwards, we'll take you on a short, sensory and mindful night-time meander around the woods. Why? Because it's fun! Walking at night is such an incredible thing to do because it makes you feel amazing. It enhances your outdoor experience because you'll see and hear so much more. And you'll feel more alive, refreshed and connected to this wonderful planet too. 

This will be followed by our wonderful astronomers from SARAS, who will point out a few things in the night sky. You'll be able to look at celestial objects through telescopes too. But if it's a cloudy evening They've got a few things lined up indoors, so you'll still learn lots and be amazed. 

At the end of this experience, you'll feel-good factor will be ramped up too!
