Activities

The Charlevoix Astrobleme Observatory is located in La Malbaie, inside the very meteorite crater that shaped the region 450 million years ago. The activities bridge the gap between astronomy and local geology, offered in both French and English, and culminate in a telescope observation session when the sky is clear. Astronomical photography and constellation identification are also part of the program. This is an evening outing, best enjoyed on a clear day.
