Stargazing Joshua Tree

A Dark Desert Oasis for Experiential Joy

Tucked away in the heart of the Mojave Desert is an expanse of desert containing fantastical rock formations, surreal landscapes and a plethora of cacti. This is the Joshua Tree National Park, and it is an area of indescribable beauty, particularly at night. From mid-August to mid-April, visitors can gaze up at the heavens in the clear night sky and be taken away to cosmic realms of bliss. Such a wonder it is, illuminated by the splendor the stars possess, that one finds solace in reverie, with a renewed appreciation for nature's bequest.

These tours take visitors on a wondrous tour of the planets, Nebulae, constellations and all the beauty of the night sky. Their guardians are experts in the field of astronomy, and can share the knowledge and expertise that comes with the night sky.

Unifying the Desert's Past and Present

This is an experience that enriches the visitors appreciation of nature, and provides a union between the park's past and present. Back in the 1840s, pioneers, explorers and miners were captivated by the vivid starscapes, creating mythologies and constellations to explain the celestial tapestry that they found. In the stillness of night, visitors today visit the area and are able to look up into the night sky to feel the same emotion and regard that was felt hundreds of years ago; a sobering reminder of the beauty of nature and the fragility of time.
