Stargazing tours
A trip into space
Even if the weather isn’t ideal, the talk with astronomer Timm-Emanuel Riesen is sure to fascinate both amateur stargazers and astronomy enthusiasts alike. He is able to talk about his area of expertise in a way people can understand. He will be taking guests of the 3100 Kulmhotel Gornergrat along on a journey of discovery through the night sky and into space.
