Stargazing & Cairngorms Dark Sky Park Events

Experience the spectacular dark skies above Tomintoul & Glenlivet with members of the Cairngorms Astronomy Group. Join us for stargazing sessions that include laser-guided night sky tours focusing on constellations, stars, planets, galaxies, and more!

Peaking on both December 13th and 14th, the Geminids are set to be the most impressive meteor shower of 2022. Join Cairngorms Astronomy Club and TGDT to experience this special celestial phenomena.The meteors of the Geminid meteor shower are very bright, moderately fast, and are unusual in being multi-coloured – mainly white, some yellow and a few green, red and blue. These colours are partly caused by the presence of traces of metals like sodium and calcium, the same effect that is used to make fireworks colourful.I﻿f the skies aren&#x27;t clear on Tuesday the 13th of December, another chance to view them will be offered at the same time on the 14th of December.Funded by Foundation Scotland from the Dorenell Wind Farm Community Benefit Fund.
