The park does have a limited number of binoculars to use so you may want to bring your own. We will also be using the park’s telescopes to view other deep space objects.
Programs are conducted at Night Sky Viewing Area which is located opposite the gated Astronomy Field. If the sky is unfavorable for stargazing, an alternative program will be held in the pavilion on the South Side of the park. However this program may be cancelled in the event of severe weather.
The park asks that visitors to the Night Sky programs to please leave their pets at home. Dim lighting, large crowds and sensitive equipment do not create a pet friendly environment. The weather can be cool and damp, dress accordingly.
For further information, please call the Lyman Run State Park office at 814-435-5010.
