In La Massana you will find one of the best dark skies in southern Europe! La Massana received the double Starlight certification with the seals of Starlight tourist destination and Starlight reserve on 10 January 2023. This internationally recognised seal certifies that the parish enjoys a dark sky free of light pollution, making it suitable for night-time astronomical observation.

Discover the magic of snow and stars!

Live an unforgettable experience that combines adventure, nature, and astronomy. Start with a circular snowshoe hike from Coll de la Botella, surrounded by spectacular winter landscapes. Once night falls, enjoy an astronomical observation session and gaze at the sky like never before.

A unique experience amidst snow, tradition, and stars!

Begin your adventure with a snowshoe descent to the Bordes del Cardemeller, where a tasting of typical Andorran products and the discovery of these traditional structures await you. Then, let yourself be amazed by an astronomical observation activity that will connect you with the universe. The return will be truly thrilling: a guided ascent through the forest on a snowmobile, an experience that provides the perfect final touch to this winter adventure.

Program

See thousands of stars and watch the spectacle of the Milky Way's arc.

Andorra's sky is a treasure and we want to rediscover it together so that it becomes a new sustainable tourism experience.

Come and discover all the activities and guided tours in summer to discover the dark sky of Massana.

We recommend that you let yourself be accompanied and guided by the professionals and Starlight monitors who lead the activities. Observation with telescopes, the discovery of the constellations and their mythology are a whole world to be discovered!

Astrotourism in the Comapedrosa Natural Park

Astrotourism has no age limit and can be carried out at any time of the year. All you need to do is wear the right shoes and clothing when you go out and bear in mind that it is a night-time activity. By opening your eyes and letting yourself be carried away by the magic of the stars, we highly value this attraction for stargazers.

Star tourism or astro-tourism will allow you to discover the beauty of the universe that surrounds us.

In May 2023, the Comú de la Massana and the Starlight Foundation organised training for Starlight Monitors. This training enables guides and tour operators to incorporate the tool of astro-tourism as another activity in the localities.
