Have you ever gone trekking by night? Join us and we will introduce you the stars
The night will slowly fall on the scenic route, surrounded by the sounds of nocturnal animals. Together we will reach a cute farmhouse in the mountains, where a local friendly family will be waiting for us to serve a wholesome dinner made of ingredients coming directly from the crops of the surrounding fields. After dinner, an interesting astronomical observation will start with an astronomer who will reveal the secrets and the discoveries of celestial objects that have always fascinated humans, generating stories, myths and legends in all cultures of the world. With the help of modern telescopes, you will be able to observe stars, planets and nebulas shining over the Mediterranean nights. You will create with your own hands the most ancient astrolabe of the world, the first sextant of celestial navigation already used 4000 years ago by peoples who began to sail with the help of the stars. *The experience will only take place with at least 8 participants.
