Your journey will lead you to famous domestic and foreign beauty spots.
Have you always wanted to go camping and look up to see the beautiful
stars above your head? Good! Because we know five of the top sites to
go stargazing and they are truly astonishing. Here they are:
Bryce Canyon is the best place the beauty of the night sky while
learning about it. Its distance from light pollution makes the sight the
ultimate pace to experience the stars. The canyon also offers the
Astronomy Rangers Club which will give you an educational yet
entertaining tour of the sky. If you are looking for an even better
experience, Bryce Canyon has an Annual Astronomy Festival every June
which includes an array of astronomy-themed activities throughout the
day. The park offers campgrounds to park providing a one of a kind
trip!
This combination of the Big Bend National and Ranch State Parks offer
one of the largest areas covered by dark sky in the US. The parks are
located between Texas and Mexico and their distance from urban cities is
the reason for the beautifully lit sky. The Rio Grande River runs
along the southern border of the parks for 118 miles, sweeping back and
forth creating some of the most beautiful landscapes the human eye can
see. There is a Ranch located right outside the park which is very
convenient for parking the RV but make sure to plan ahead!
Headlands International Dark Sky Park in Michigan is a great example
of the effect of putting a Dark Sky Designation into place. A Dark Sky
Designation is issued by the International Dark-Sky Association which
designates areas that commit to reducing light pollution. The park
offers one of the best views of the Northern Lights from all around the
Lake Michigan area. Unfortunately, the Headlands does not allow parking
on the site but there is a campground located about five miles outside
the park. The trip to this site is genuinely breathtaking!
The Anza-Borrego Park in California sits on 600,000 acres of land and
includes a popular garden and amazing wildflowers spanning from red to
yellow, to green. The visiting center at the park is also very important
and was recognized in an award-winning film A Year in the Desert.
If you like hiking, the park sits on the Pacific Crest Trail, which is a
2,650-mile trail which runs from Canada to Mexico. All the hiking will
be worth it when you get to admire the beautiful night sky. The Park has
its own Astronomy Park which provides guests with telescopes and an
invite to a stargazing party making for a remarkable experience.
The Cosmic Campground International Dark Sky Sanctuary aka CCIDSS is
the first International Dark Sky Sanctuary located in North America. The
Sanctuary is in the Gila National Forest
and its forty-mile distance from the nearest city makes view
tremendous. Also, as you can see in the picture above, the campground is
fairly flat producing the ultimate view of the night sky. The site has
four telescopes spread around the site but you may not want to leave
your RV because of the view from the campsite.
No matter which place you decide on exploring next, your experience won’t be complete without a luxury RV. LuxeRV provides the best experience in the business to allow you to have the freedom and opportunity to see the stars while living in luxury. We look forward to your booking and happy RVing!
