On this stargazing experience at Wentworth Falls, you will have a 180 degree sunset vista of the Jamison Valley before you watch the stars appear with an astrophysicist guide.

You will have a view of the UNESCO-listed Greater Blue Mountains skies and observe through a professional-grade telescope the moon and its craters, Saturn’s rings and the moons of Jupiter. You will also see Mars and Venus, the Orion Nebula, triple stars, and the Milky Way.

Your guide will give you tips on identifying stars and constellations with the naked-eye while sharing insights on the celestial dance of the planets, satellites, navigation, the universe and our home galaxy.
