Zen Stargazing invites families to a special 60-minute Star Bathing experience under Twizel’s beautiful night sky. Designed with young children and older guests in mind, this shorter tour offers comfort and accessibility without compromising on the magic of stargazing. Guests can relax on reclining chairs, observe planets and star clusters through telescopes, and enjoy a peaceful guided introduction to the southern sky with a Japanese-speaking guide. With an earlier start time, families can experience the wonder of the night sky together while still keeping bedtime routines in mind. This is a mindful, gentle way to connect with the stars in the Aoraki Mackenzie Dark Sky Reserve, creating lasting memories for all generations.
