The North coast of Norfolk is well renowned for its dark skies, and Kelling Heath is ideally situated to take advantage of them.
This special event organised in collaboration with Birmingham Astronomical Society and Kelling Heath Holiday Camp takes place over several nights around a new moon when the skies are at their darkest.
Everyone is welcome, the more the merrier! Please be aware of rules governing the use of white light at night, which adversely affect night vision.
