Please keep a respectful distance for everyone’s safety. Where there’s a little one, mama’s never too far behind.

Long before city lights, humans looked up at this same sky and found stories. 🌟

At Sequoia and Kings Canyon, that sky still exists, and our Field Institute guides are ready to share it with you. Join us for guided stargazing at Grant Grove, Sequoia, or in the Foothills, where the constellations come alive through science, culture, and the kind of darkness you have to experience to believe.
