Day or night, adults and kids alike can explore the Universe at Lowell Observatory.
Peer through the telescope that Percival Lowell used to sketch Mars or visit the telescope that helped Clyde Tombaugh discover Pluto. Tour the facility with friendly, knowledgeable guides. Experience the Universe though widescreen multimedia shows, exhibits, live presentations, and a 3D portable planetarium.
Your visit begins in the 6,500-square-foot Steele Visitor Center, where the team will get you started on your journey of exploration. In addition to our tours and multimedia shows, they offer the Honeywell Children's Exhibit for kids. Best of all, in the evening you can enjoy Flagstaff's beautiful dark skies and spectacular views through the Alvan Clark Telescope.
Take a weekend and drive up and see Lowell Observatory on Mars Hill, one mile west of downtown Flagstaff, Arizona.
Due to the high elevation (7,200 feet) you will want to pace yourself if you're not accustomed to the elevation. Avoid becoming dehydrated by drinking plenty of water. Dress in layers; evenings can be cold, even in the summer. In the daytime, remember to wear sunscreen to protect against sunburn.
