Experience an impressive evening that you'll absolutely never forget. We drive with a rugged Puur 4x4 Landrover across the wide beach to the Boschplaat. This nature reserve was awarded Dark Sky Park status in 2015. Under the guidance of a Puur astronomer, we look at the sky and enjoy the silence. In the dark, all senses become heightened, so hear, see and experience the darkness. A visit to the Drenkelingenhuisje is naturally not to be missed.
We run this tour from 1st October to 1st April (due to beach driving permits).
Dark Sky is more than stargazing:
- Breathe the pure air
- View the darkest spots of East Terschelling
- Climb the Drenkelingenhuisje and write your name in it
- Experience the darkness
- Observe minimal light pollution
- Admire the starry sky in clear weather
- Feel the space
- Enjoy the silence
- Listen to animal sounds in the island nature
- Receive a star chart of the sky afterwards
- Feel the peace and relaxation
