Oregon Caves National Monument Designated as an International Dark Sky Park

Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve has achieved certification as an International Dark Sky Park from DarkSky International, becoming Oregon’s second such location, following Prineville Reservoir State Park. This recognition comes after years of dedicated efforts to reduce light pollution while preserving the park’s historic features, including modernizing lighting fixtures and implementing a night sky monitoring program. Known for its stunning subterranean formations, Oregon Caves also offers a breathtaking celestial experience, with clear night skies ideal for stargazing. Park officials emphasize that this designation underscores their commitment to environmental conservation and community engagement, positioning the park as a unique destination for both natural wonders and astronomical beauty. Future infrastructure developments will align with DarkSky International’s standards, ensuring continued protection of the region’s natural darkness.
