Prime Stargazing Locations in the U.S.: Ideal Dark Sky Areas and Astronomy Events

As light pollution increasingly hinders our ability to stargaze, the upcoming meteor showers—the Lyrids, peaking April 21-22, and the Eta Aquarids, peaking around May 6—offer a perfect opportunity to escape urban bright lights. To fully experience these celestial events, travelers are encouraged to visit one of the more than 200 designated Dark Sky Places across the U.S., where communities actively preserve dark skies for optimal stargazing. From serene national parks to dedicated sanctuaries, these locations promise spectacular views of the cosmos. With Dark Sky Week running from April 21-28, now is an ideal time for amateur astronomers and sky enthusiasts to explore these breathtaking sites and reconnect with the universe above.
