Unspoilt by light pollution, the dark night skies above Pfeiffer Wines, in North East Victoria, is a superb location for our incredibly special stargazing journey with host, Mietta Habets.


This captivating tour begins with a warming cup of casserole and a glass of dark skies Durif when you arrive at the winery.  We will then make our way to our Sunday Creek Bridge for our first stop, allowing our eyes time to adjust to the night skies. 

From there we will wander down to our dark skies zone amongst our vines, where star gazing seats and blankets await.

Mietta will help you identify constellations, introduce you to night skies science and share stars and dark skies stories of our First Nations peoples and those of other cultures and civilisations.

And finally, you will have the opportunity to peer through Mietta’s powerful telescope to see craters on the moon and globular clusters beyond our galaxy.
