Astronomical Observatory
The astronomical observatory is situated at 1670 meters above sea level, this location without light pollution allows us to observe and take amazing photographs of celestial objects. Clients can enjoy an introduction in astronomy and be shown some of the wonderfull objects in the night sky such as: Planets, Galaxies, Star clusters and planetary nebular.
We are equiped with a 10 inch Newtonian on a Mesu 200 mount. The scope has a ST 80 guide scope and ccd guide camera. We also hace a Celeston .25 SCT for Planitary Observing which is mounted on a belt driven EQ6 Pro.
