The winter sky above Tidmarsh's open, restored landscape is one of the darkest in the region, and December nights offer some of the clearest views of the year's most prominent constellations.
Walk beneath a canopy of stars with a naturalist guide who introduces you to the shapes, stories, and navigation techniques embedded in the winter sky, from Orion's unmistakable silhouette to the cultural knowledge that generations of people across the world have found in the constellations overhead. Discover how the stars have served as a compass, a calendar, and a map for centuries of exploration and seasonal life.
Dress warmly and bring a light source; the best sky-watching often happens when you stand still and let your eyes adjust.
