Light pollution significantly hampers stargazing by overshadowing celestial events. However, riding scenic trains through rural areas can restore these views by allowing travelers to enjoy clear night skies, as highlighted by National Geographic. Their selection of the ten best stargazing trains in the U.S. includes outstanding options like the Napa Valley Wine Train and Mendocino's Skunk Train, offering atmospheric rides with amenities designed to enhance the stargazing experience, such as telescopes or open-air viewing.
Light pollution obscures the night sky, hindering stargazing experiences, but train journeys through dark-sky regions provide opportunities to witness celestial wonders away from city lights.
National Geographic highlights stargazing trains as a unique travel option, combining scenic railway rides with opportunities to enjoy unspoiled views of the night sky.
