Stars & S'mores

About This Adventure

A Red Cliffs Lodge Exclusive Stargazing Experience

Discover why Moab is a world-renowned International Dark Sky destination right from the grounds of Red Cliffs Lodge.

Operated by a premier, professional stargazing company, this elite on-site experience transforms the desert night into a breathtaking celestial theater. Step outside your lodge accommodations to enjoy gourmet s'mores as expert astronomers deploy high-powered, professional telescopes. Rather than just pointing out constellations, your guides weave ancient mythology with modern astronomy, revealing deep-space wonders like Saturn’s rings and the sweeping river of the Milky Way.

Enjoy a delicious, educational, and completely seamless cosmic journey without ever leaving the comfort of the resort property.
