Despite widespread light pollution there are a number of great places to stargaze across Scotland especially in the Highlands region. Travelling only a few miles away from light-polluted towns and cities can reveal wonderful views of the skies. Several dark sky parks and reserves have been established where light pollution levels are kept under control. There are many official dark sky discovery sites dotted around the country, especially in our region.

On your journey
You should wear a face-covering* unless you are not required by law. See further Scottish Government guidance on face-covering and exemptions.
You should also be aware of the surfaces, like door handles, you or others touch.
Be considerate to your driver by taking all your belongings and rubbish when leaving the vehicle.
* Subject to the latest guidance from the Scottish Government.
Completing your journey
When finishing your journey, you should deposit any of your used tissues or rubbish in bins. We recommend you wash or sanitize your hands (and children’s hands if you are travelling with them) as soon as possible.
The vehicle is cleaned after every trip and is sprayed with an antibacterial disinfectant spray. This includes the door handle, seats, and seat belts. A deep clean is done regularly.
