Travel to Dark Sky Preserves in Canada and see the stars without light pollution [+Map]

January 9, 2019

Have you ever stared up at the sky at night and tried to count all the stars you could see? With light pollution from cities, it can be hard to see those celestial beauties, but at Dark Sky Preserves in Canada, you can lose yourself in the tapestry of the night. | My Wandering Voyage #darksky #canada #travel

What’s one new thing you would like to do this year? For me, I’d like to see and photograph more night time sky phenomenon, like the Milky Way and northern lights. The best way to do that is to visit one of the many dark sky preserves in Canada.

In the part one, I talked about the ‘Ice’ portion of Fire and Ice: A Canadian Road Trip. Once we left the mountains, the weather changed, and we delved into the ‘Fire’ part of our journey. From Ice and snow to sand and badlands, this truly was a fire and ice road trip.

Fire and Ice: A Canadian Road Trip - part one | My Wandering Voyage travel blog

No, this won’t be a five-part (so far) novel by George R.R. Martin, but Fire and Ice is the best title to describe our Canadian road trip. One day we were in four feet of snow, the other we were standing atop of a dune. One day we were walking through grasslands, the other we were standing ashore counting icebergs.

I’ve been to Whitecourt for about three weeks now. I absolutely love it. There is so much to see here. It is a small town, so it is pretty easy to recognize people, and easy to get around.
