Twice a year, we experience equal hours of daytime and nighttime!
This unique event marks the moment when the sun crosses the celestial equator, resulting in nearly equal hours of daylight and darkness across the globe. As we welcome the arrival of autumn, you’ll have the opportunity to explore the beautiful transition of the season in a serene natural setting.
Our knowledgeable guides will lead you through a peaceful walk, explaining how the tilt of the Earth’s axis and its orbit around the sun create the equinox, and how these celestial movements influence the natural world around us.
Discover how plants, animals, and even humans adjust to the changing light and temperature. Whether you’re an astronomy enthusiast, a nature lover, or simply curious about the wonders of the universe, this walk offers a chance to connect with the rhythms of nature.
Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate the changing season and deepen your understanding of the world we live in.
