Winter Night Tours at Perth Observatory

Look to the sky with your loved one at the Perth Observatory in Bickley.  Astronomers say the best time for viewing our southern skies is during Winter, so it’s the perfect time to take one of their Winter Night Tours.  They start at 7:30 and run for 1 ½ hours.  If you’re not going during the winter time, they have other night tours available throughout the year but those start a bit later (because the sun sets later!).

Lions Lookout

On your way back down the hill stop by the Lions Lookout in Lesmurdie (with a blanket) to take in the city views. One of the best kept secerets to enjoy one of the best views of the city and surrounds. Look up and try and spot the stars from your observatory tour.
