experience 100% pure darkness.
Our experiences are located on 25,000 acres of farmland, all of which fall within the boundaries of the gold rated Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve...aka some of the darkest skies in the world. Another awesome bonus? We have little to no light pollution and are committed to leaving the lightest footprint on our land and night sky.
