Beyond Earth Stargazing (15 Oct – 14 May)

From Oct – May every year this is the Best Stargazing and Camping program in town. Ours is a very unique program where we set the night for observing planets, stars, different constellations and deep-sky objects clubbed with an
extraordinary camping experience along with unique & fun games. This includes Giant Swing, Lake visit,
trekking to sun set point and a lot more.

We have an extraordinary interactive session with our special guest speakers who are research scientists from IUCCA – Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Pune. So we can expect a lot of
knowledge and fun at the same time. After all, what campers love the most is sitting around the campfire at night, inhaling the cool, fresh air, and pausing every now and then to admire a star-studded sky.

Stargazing is actually considered one of the top activities of Camping. The Milky Way, star trails, & star photography techniques are special attractions of our camping program. Plan for an extravagant weekend getaway to feel refreshed amid the splendid nature.
