Mudgee Observatory

Mudgee Observatory has been a private observatory for the past ten years though is now open to school groups, organized tours and any member of the general public who wishes to attend.

Mudgee Observatory offers up the night skies as they were meant to be viewed, situated 15 minutes drive to the west of Mudgee in a location of extremely dark skies away from the town lights and the lights of Ulan mines.

A visit to Mudgee Observatory is both entertaining and educational for all ages. The theatre and flat screen planetarium runs several features on the night sky and the Sun as well as many programs on space missions.

A great variety of telescopes and binoculars are available for our visitors to use as well as conducted tours of the night sky.
