Jebel Hafit Desert Park invites families, explorers, and curious minds to Cosmic Glow — a magical three-part stargazing series taking place as part of the Mountain Trails & Tales event line-up.

Programme

Each evening, the event offers a carefully curated programme beneath the stars at this iconic UNESCO World Heritage Site.

19 & 26 April: From 7:00pm to 10:30pm

Set against the dramatic backdrop of Jebel Hafit, the event promises an unforgettable journey through the cosmos.

Guests can expect an enchanting mix of experiences, from deep-sky telescope viewings and guided planet spotting to hands-on silk-screening and UV painting workshops inspired by Arab astronomy, interactive drumming circles, astrophotography sessions, and cosmic glow-in-the-dark surprises.

Among the evening’s many highlights is the Night Archaeology Tour, led by the Jebel Hafit Desert Park, where guests can explore ancient tombs and ruins under the moonlight—uncovering age-old stories etched in stone, with a hint of mystery in the air. Meanwhile, expert astronomers from Al Sadeem Observatory will guide the celestial programming, including telescope observations, astrophotography, and astronomy-focused workshops designed to spark wonder and curiosity.
