We'll meet in the Lakes at 12pm & go for a 2-3 hour walk, we'll then head for some food at a pub & go star gazing at 8pm.

Star gazing is £30 & the hostel is approx £45.

** 1st October - Please note - Laura has now booked for everyone who has paid. If you want to come along & have not paid, please contact Laura at lauracope@goodgym.org to see if you can be booked on as additional.

Join us for an awe-inspiring evening of stargazing in the Lake District. Incredible stars, beautiful nebulae and distant galaxies are all accessible through our range of telescopes.

With the help of Grizedale Observatory's experienced and friendly astronomers you’ll spend the evening enjoying the incredible sights our universe has to offer.
