The location for anyone wanting to see thousands of stars in a dark sky
There are few places in the UK where you can clearly see the Milky Way and also
the Andromeda Galaxy with just your eyes. The Galloway Astronomy Centre is such
a place.
Located approx 20 miles south of the Internationally recognised Gold Award Dark
Sky Park at the Galloway Forest. Our beautiful night sky is free of light pollution
making viewing the wonders of the night sky an unforgettable experience.
One big advantage of the Galloway Astronomy Centre over other observatories is
after stargazing there is no travelling on unlit or icy roads, your warm
accommodation is only a short walk away.

“It’s the best view I’ve ever had” - Prof Ian Morison (Jodrell Bank)
Restrictions may be easing, however, we will continue to meet Covid hygiene standards.
