Try your hand at astronomy camping
The star campsite
Our campsite has one very special feature: it is an astronomy campsite! Be sure to visit our automated observatory, equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, including the largest telescope in the province of Girona.
The observatory team works in collaboration with NASA and has a number of accreditations: the Starlight Camp label, as well as "International Dark Sky Reserve" status awarded by the IDA.
It has to be said that the Alta Garrotxa is the most exceptional environment for stargazing in Western Europe. When night falls, the sky lays on a great show for you.
Learn about astronomical observation
To help you make the most of this natural treasure, our campsite is committed to providing as many people as possible with the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of the stars. We have set up a special room, the Sala de les Constel·lacions, and an open-air amphitheatre where workshops, lectures and observation sessions are organised.
During the month of July, Yelloh! Village Bassegoda Park goes a step further by hosting Starfest, a festive event devoted to astronomy. With a specially designed programme, attendees can participate in conferences led by experts, workshops and observation sessions throughout the day. Not to mention live music to add to the ambiance, and for those who prefer to dine on site, a food truck is available.
Everything you need for a fun and entertaining introduction to astronomy!
