Whistler Observatory

Whistler Observatory is a unique destination for astronomy enthusiasts in Red Lodge, Montana. The observatory offers an unforgettable experience under the starry sky thanks to three main telescopes housed in a special 16x16-foot observation room.

The place is run by passionate members of the 'friends of the WO' group, who take care of the equipment and share their knowledge with visitors. The Red Lodge Dark Skies group uses the observatory to educate about lighting principles and the importance of dark sky preservation in rural areas.

It's perfect for a family evening filled with science and awe of the cosmos.
