Locatie: de keuze van je locatie is doorslaggevend. Hoe donkerder, hoe beter! In Nederland gaan mensen naar de Veluwe of richting de Waddeneilanden. De échte liefhebber verlaat Nederland en gaat naar de Alpen of de Pyrenee ë n. Wil je weten waar het minste lichtvervuiling is? Ga dan naar <anchor>darksitefinder.com</anchor>. Onthou één ding goed. Dat jij de Melkweg met je eigen ogen niet ziet, wil niet zeggen dat de Melkweg er niet is. Jouw camera kan met behulp van de juiste instellingen wél de Melkweg zien.

# Map

## \[ **Updated 2024**\]

![](https://darksitefinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/DSC_6084-Edit-1024x681.jpg)

It was long overdue, but this map has now been updated with more recent light pollution information. The years 2006, 2016, 2020, and 2022 can all be selected on the map. When comparing year to year, sadly the trend is not good for stargazers. Truly dark skies are harder to find than ever. But they’re still worth the effort to see. Hopefully this map will continue to help you find the best dark sites for stargazing.
