About this program
Join us for a starry night at Chiricahua National Monument! Enjoy a quick night-sky chat and some telescope viewing. Don't forget a cozy blanket or camp chair--and warm layers for the cool night air.
Programs may be canceled due to weather, lightning, high winds, cold conditions that affect telescope operation, or hazardous road conditions. Check the park website for updates.
- Where to meet
- Road between Echo Canyon parking and Sugarloaf.
- Good to know
- The scenic 7.5-mile drive along Bonita Canyon Drive typically takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete, winding its way through the canyon up to the Echo Canyon Parking Area. Allow time for parking and a walk up to the night sky viewing.
