A guided stargazing experience - Enjoy the dark night sky and learn more about the stars and constellations far away from the city lights
Spend an evening beneath the magnificent, starry night sky above Riimukivi Historical Farm.
During the Night of the Skyfires, you will learn about the stars and constellations visible in the night sky, how to find due north by locating the North Star, and why the constellations change with the seasons. If you are lucky, you may even witness the Northern Lights dancing across the sky.
Located far away from the glow of city lights, Riimukivi Historical Farm offers an excellent dark-sky location, where the stars shine clearly overhead.
The 200-year-old farm, illuminated only by lantern light so as not to dim the brilliance of the stars, creates a magical setting for stargazing.
The price of the event is €300 for a group of up to 10 participants, with an additional fee of
€20 per extra participant (€10 for participants under 15 years of age)
The price includes the guided event and a hot drink served from the fire table.
If desired, a campfire dinner can be added for 20€ per participant.
The event is available from August to March, during the months when the sun sets low enough for the sky to grow dark and the stars to become visible.
You may choose the start time of the event from sunset onwards:
• August: from 10 pm
• September: from 8 pm
• October-March: from 6 pm
The event can accommodate up to 25 participants. For larger groups, please contact us at info@riimukiventila.fi
