plan your Trip
Decide on a new moon phase:
Plan your Astro vacation around the new moon phase to observe undisturbed by moonlight. The table shows you the ideal Astro times in 2026 and 2027. If you plan a stay that extends beyond the new moon phases specified here, please note that astronomical equipment can only be rented during the new moon phases. An exception to this is the rental of one of the 4 solo platforms, on which you can operate your own instruments.
Please send us your booking request as early as possible, preferably a year ahead so that you can reserve your favourite equipment and room and to avoid disappointment.
