Manuka Skies is a truely unique stargazing location. With minimal light pollution, and in a setting of native forest and wildlife, you will be visiting a sanctuary for both astronomy and wildlife alike.
As you explore the heavens with our range of equipment, relax to the sound of our spring fed stream flowing down the mountain. Listen out for our native Morepork Owls that nest in the area.
Manuka Skies acts as Kaitiaki for the sanctuary. Meaning we are it's guardians responsible for caring for her. Our vision is to re-connect the sky back to the earth through our forests.

Join us for an evening under the stars. Our guides will take you on a tour first using the naked eye, where we discuss different stars and constellations such as the Southern Cross as you learn to navigate the night sky. Get up close with our quality Celestron electronically guided telescope. This scope is great for looking at deep sky objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye, such as the Omega Cluster, or Sombrero Galaxy. We also have our range of manual telescopes which are great for a free roam experience. Our astro binoculars work great on our lounges, where you can lie back fully and gaze up at the wonders above. Pair these with our interactive star finder and test your navigation skills! CONTENT HIDE

A magical night 🌟

5.00We were one of the first trips to go up to the new viewing platform and wow it didn’t disappoint. Brent & Kara had so much knowledge about astronomy & you could sense how passionate they are towards it which was refreshing. We definitely left the site happy & more educated on the universe. Don’t let a cold night put you off, as the sky will be clearer plus you get a hot chocolate & there’s a wee heated caravan! Highly recommend, Carissa & Nathan :D

5.00Well we had a very interesting night. Lots of activity in the sky . We both really knew nothing about the night sky. Brent was very knowledgeable. It was very cold up on the mountain so dress accordingly. Hot chocolate always helps
Worth a Visit

5.00We didn't actually get to do this as the weather wouldn't co-operate but the communication was wonderful and a refund was issued. If we had time to stay and wait for the weather to clear it would have been amazing as the Hanmer Springs area as awhole was just beautiful.
Truly awesome experience

5.00Wow!! The tour starts with a 10 minute shuttle from the village. The guide (Brent) was very informative throughout the drive there. Once we arrived we were offered complimentary hot chocolates and snacks YUMM!!. The moment I stepped out of the shuttle my breath was taken away. The location is incredible, surrounded by mountain rangers with hints of snow, then to look up and see the stars was something out of movie. 10/10 for Brent and Kara's passion and knowledge. They gave us the opportunity to interact with the telescopes. They used high technology equipment to show real time images that we can't see with the naked eye. Kara and Brent answered all our questions with ease. Its very clear, they really know their stuff and love their job. Growing up I could never spot constellations in real life because they would always blur together in my eyes. We'll that all changed because Kara & Brent had registered lazers that could point to specific stars. For the first time in my life I could clearly see the constellations. It was an incredible thing to experience for the first time. For that reason I will cherish this memory forever. Thank you so much Manuka Skies!
10/10 experience!!

5.00Fantastic sky at night tour to star gaze in Hanmer Springs. Pick up from the centre of town into the surrounding hills for a fantastical star gazing experience. Brent the guide was passionate and knowledgable about all that could be seen in the sky. Showing us galaxies, planets, nebulas, and stars using a range of manual, digital and computerised telescopes and a pair of astrobinoculars. South Hemisphere specials. Fantastic experience.
Amazing night

5.00Brent was wonderful with the kids who asked a thousand questions. He was very knowledgeable and passionate. The stars put on an amazing show everyone enjoyed. If you’re from Queensland and come in Spring, you will still need layers.
