A starry night over the La Rizza Nature Reserve - Star Walks

An evening excursion featuring a circular walk around the La Rizza Nature Reserve: in early September, this will take you on a journey to discover the scents and nocturnal wildlife of the plain. The route winds its way along the edges of the protected area as darkness falls: along the way, we will meet expert amateur astronomers who will guide us in observing the sky. Constellations, the moon, planets and astronomical curiosities will take shape above us, with the aid of a telescope. An immersive experience amidst the charm of the night-time natural world, exploring the universe.
