Elqui Valley Stargazing

We will pick you up at your hotel in La Serena at the designated time and proceed to the Elqui River valley towards Vicuña.

On the outskirts of Vicuña, you will find the Natural Amatista Observatory. Upon arrival at this astronomical observation center, we will participate in a short talk on astronomy.

After the talk, we will engage in a stargazing activity utilizing powerful electronic telescopes to observe the celestial vault.

During this experience, we will view planets, galaxies and constellations.

The stargazing session continues with yoga mats and soft blankets for relaxation. Using a laser pointer, constellations and stars will be explored while listening to a narrative about the cosmic origins of our universe. Additionally, there will be a sound therapy session featuring Tibetan bowls, quartz, and gongs to enhance your connection with the serene night sky.

We will return to La Serena, arriving at your hotel 6 hours after pickup.
