In the middle of the icy and pitch black winter night you will experience special celestial events like shooting star nights, meteor showers, full moons.... up close.
The unspoiled high valley is far away from brightly lit cities and light sources and is therefore ideal for marveling at the thousands of twinkling constellations under expert guidance. After an approx. half-hour hike steaming punch and mulled wine await you. Our nature education guides will accompany you on the picnic under the stars on the following dates:
