The Perseids will peak in the early hours before dawn on August 12th, but don’t miss the celestial show starting at 10 PM on the 11th. Expect to see up to 60 meteors per hour streaking across the night.

We recommend finding a high spot facing North/Northeast for the best views, away from city lights. Remember, no special equipment is needed – just your eyes and a sense of wonder!

Make an event out of it! It's a perfect excuse to gather friends and enjoy a night surrounded by nature.

Beyond the Perseids, keep your eyes peeled for a seasonal Blue Moon on August 19th – a rare treat you won't miss! And as the month draws to a close, Saturn will join the show, glowing on the evening of the 20th. With a telescope, you might even catch a glimpse of Neptune.

So, grab your tent and get ready for a night that promises to be unforgettable. Whether you're chasing meteors or just enjoying the peace of the night, the sky’s the limit.

Stay tuned for more TOPO adventures and remember: every great journey begins with a night under the stars!
