30th October 2024 - 31st March 2025
Mills Observatory is now open for the 2024/2025 season.
The observatory will be open six nights a week. Mills is Britain’s first purpose-built public observatory, enjoying a magnificent woodland setting on the summit of Balgay Hill. It is free to enter and there is no need to book. Join them to watch stars and planets through telescopes or admire the scenery with some spectacular treetop vistas across the silvery Tay.
With fascinating space exploration and astronomical displays, planetarium shows and a fully computerised telescope that can detect 30,000 objects in the sky, there’s so much to see, do and learn. Night sky viewing is available when the clouds stay away.
Stargazers and dreamers welcome.
Entry is free.
