Begin your evening with a guided hike along our Planet Walk Trail, a flat and scenic journey to Saturn and back, approximately 1.2 miles in total, beneath the darkening sky as knowledgeable docents offer insightful facts at each planetary stop. Did you know: each step in our planet walk is equivalent to 2.3 million miles through our solar system!

After the walk, return to the Robert Ferguson Observatory to warm up with a cup of hot cocoa and an in-depth stargazing session led by one of our experienced astronomers. The night sky tour blends science and storytelling, helping you appreciate the night sky in a whole new way.

Once the Star guide portion concludes, guests are welcome to refill their cocoa and continue observing through our telescopes for the remainder of the night.
