Full description
After this experience your feet will probably still be on the ground but your mind will remain in orbit.
Live an astro-tourism experience in Venta del Moro, in the heart of the Bobal Land. Under the guidance of a Starlight guide you will learn to interpret constellations and mythological legends under the clearest sky in the interior of Valencia.
Don't miss the best stories, the ones written with light over your head.
What we will do
We will meet punctually at the meeting point in Venta del Moro, where the Starlight guide will welcome us to start a different kind of evening under the sky of the Land of Bobal.
After a brief presentation, we will start a short, easy and very accessible route on foot . We will ascend slightly to gain height and reach a privileged observation point, taking advantage of the low light pollution that allows the area of Tierra de Bobal to be certified as a Starlight Tourist Destination.
We will move forward commenting on what the celestial vault shows us and we will have time to discover the secrets of the firmament in a simple and fun way.
With the help of a laser pointer, we will identify planets, constellations and stars with the naked eye, while we immerse ourselves in fascinating stories of mythology and ancient legends. We will also learn how to use a planisphere so you can continue to explore the sky from your own home and discuss the vital importance of protecting the purity of our nights.
We will end the activity after an hour and a half of astronomical immersion, returning to the starting point with a new perspective on the lights that illuminate our path at night.
