Overview

While the park’s breathtaking beauty is undeniable by day, it’s after the sun sets that its true enchantment reveals itself. With fewer crowds and cooler temperatures, exploring at night offers a sense of tranquility and solitude that’s rarely experienced during the bustling daytime hours. On this Guided intro to Astro-photography, seize this opportunity to immortalize the cosmos unfolding above Arches National Park. Whether you're a hobbyist photographer, just recently bought your first camera, or maybe want to try your hand at smarthptone photography, with our guides you’ll unlock the secrets to capturing the elusive beauty of the night sky, transforming these fleeting moments into timeless imagery.

Meeting points

We meet at the trailhead of the North and South Windows. It's in the first parking lot and on the right.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Don't miss the dark skies!

Published on Nov, 2024

A unique and must-do activity that I highly recommend for those visiting arches. When the conditions are right, the experience of looking at the sky with the naked eye and seeing the incredible amount of stars, planets and galaxies that are always up there but we pass through life not even knowing they are is absolutely humbling. Brandon is a knowledgeable, helpful and kind guide. He shares his passion for astrophotography with you and sends you home with amazing memories. Arches is amazing at any time, but if you can see it both day and night, that is the ultimate experience! You won't regret it!

Excellent tour guide and fabulous photos

Published on Oct, 2024

I’d never taken night sky photos before and the instructions were excellent. Our host was knowledgeable and friendly, and he expertly guided us around the Windows Section of Arches NP in the dark (he supplied red light head torches and tripods for those that needed them).

Milky Way over Delicate Arches

Published on Oct, 2024

Brandon was an amazing guide. Friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and generous. I would recommend this trip to any moderate to advanced hikers looking to get away from the crowds for an awesome inspiring experience.

Great Astrophotography Tour with Brandon!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a wonderful time visiting and photographing the arches at night! Our guide Brandon was amazing, and knowledgeable! He helped us get everything set up and we got some very nice pictures of the stars and Milky Way. Absolutely recommend it!
