Itinerary
Embark on a captivating journey into the heart of Geneva's country side, one of Europe’s premier dark-sky regions, for an extraordinary stargazing experience. Guided by a passionate particle physicist with a PhD from the University of Geneva and over 10 years of expertise in research at Geneva's particle accelerator (Large Hadron Collider), this tour offers a unique blend of scientific discovery and awe-inspiring celestial observation.
Using a high-quality 200mm Newtonian reflector telescope, you will explore the wonders of the night sky, including galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, and the moon, all from the serene and secure setting of a safe forest, close to the village.
