Astrotourism for all
Get closer to the cosmos
We are committed to the environment and work towards sustainable tourism.
That is why we are taking measures in this direction. More information
- You will learn about the singularities of the fauna, flora and geology of the Geopark of Granada and the way of life of its past inhabitants.
- The activity is designed for small groups and avoids more sensitive and crowded areas, minimizing negative impacts on the environment.
- Our activities do not generate waste and the energy consumed is created by solar panels.

One of our astronomers will guide you through a variety of routes through different celestial bodies, from nearby stars to distant galaxies, completing the observation with exciting information about each part of the journey, with the help of models and visual material.
Our tours thus stand out from traditional observations, providing a more vivid sensation and lasting memories.
If you want some music to play, just let us know, although the complex has the natural soundtrack of the breeze, crickets and the occasional owl.

We are located in the Geopark of Granada, in the middle of the Coloraos desert, next to the town of Gorafe.
There are two ways to get there:
- From the village you will find a mostly asphalt road but with curves that ascend to the plateau.
- From the entrance to the Megalithic Park and from the parking lot you can continue along the cliff, in a straight line and without any slope to the observatory. However, all this road is dirt, although much more comfortable.
And you can take the opportunity to visit the dolmens of the necropolis of Llano de Olivares if you have time!
