Travel Stargazing Telescope

The Celestron Travel Scope 60 DX is a 60 mm refractor telescope that packs, with its tripod and accessories, into a travel backpack. It is a straightforward way to explore the night sky, and spot wildlife by day, from a quiet park-up.

Stargazing from a dark-sky park-up

Setup is tool-free on the alt-azimuth mount, and a pan handle lets you follow what you are watching. The 20 mm and 8 mm eyepieces give 18x and 45x magnification, and a 3x Barlow lens and an erect image diagonal are in the kit too.

A smartphone adapter and Bluetooth shutter remote let you take photos without nudging the scope. The whole kit weighs 2.72 kg and lives in its backpack, so the small parts stay together between trips. Clear nights get cold, so take a layer such as our insulated camping blanket.
