BBC Radio Wales - Country Focus, Astro Trail

On the trail of the dark skies of the Cambrian Mountains.

Spreading out through the heart of Wales, the Cambrian Mountains contain some of our darkest skies.  It's a perfect location for stargazers but also for remote rural communities to embrace astro-tourism.  Dark Sky Wales run regular astronomy weekends, a chance for guests to come and discover the glories of the night sky.  Pauline Smith joins them for an evening of stargazing at the Meddins' family farm near Staylittle, in Montgomeryshire.
