THE DARKEST SKIES
Stargazing in the Jaisalmer Desert
Far from city lights, the desert night reveals itself: thousands of stars, the bright band of the Milky Way, and a silence that makes the sky feel even bigger.
Stargazing at the camp needs no equipment — just a clear night, a charpai or a dune ridge, and time. Weather and moon phases permitting, it is the quietest highlight of any stay.
With almost no artificial light for miles, the desert in Sam Jaisalmer offers skies city dwellers have forgotten exist. Winter nights around the new moon are the finest — plan your dates accordingly.
