Dark sky experiences
Join fellow night sky enthusiasts at Astotin Lake after dark! Elk Island National Park is a member of the Beaver Hills Dark Sky Preserve and is a perfect place to experience the stars and planets above. Because the earth is constantly rotating, the night sky changes throughout the year.
See our Calendar of Events 2020 for all dark sky and other events at Elk Island National Park!
