Visitor Center

When

July 1, 2023. 9:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.

Join us for a night time tour of our beautiful park. Staunton River State Park is a certified international dark sky park, so it is a excellent place to take a look into the cosmos at the stars, planets, constellations, and galaxies that are very far away. Take in the cool summer evening air as we make our way through the park. You will have opportunities to observe the Staunton and Dan Rivers at night and see the reflection of the full moon out on the water.

There is a $1 per person program fee. Parking fees are required to enter the park unless you are a cabin or campground guest.
