An international dark sky reserve with zero light pollution, you can see the Milky Way and the Southern Cross with your own eyes, and the brilliant starry sky is visible to the naked eye.

It was a fantastic experience. The teacher's explanations were very engaging, and I learned a lot. I learned how to identify the Southern Cross, Alpha Beta Centauri, and that the brightest star is Sirius. Gazing at the starry sky and listening to the explanations, and afterwards enjoying hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows, plus a group photo under the stars, it was all unforgettable.

The driver and guide were very humorous and explained astronomical knowledge very well. Cowan Mountain is actually on the side of the road, very close. Overall, I am satisfied!
