Te Moata is a purpose-built retreat centre sitting on 344 hectares of regenerating native bush in the Coromandel Peninsula of the North Island of New Zealand. Te Moata hosts a variety of community events and a programme of residential courses. Over the last 20 years this has included Insight Meditation retreats, Dances of Universal Peace gatherings, personal and professional development groups, seasonal celebrations and women's gatherings.
Nestled within the bush and lit by solar power, the retreat centre comprises several buildings set around an attractive courtyard. Te Moata offers a year-round programme of retreats and gatherings.
Four solitary retreat huts with basic living facilities are situated on high ridges deep in the bush and are available for individual retreat. A network of walking tracks allows access to streams, waterfalls, and beautiful stands of native trees. Special meditation and sacred sites at Te Moata include the Lavender, Rimu and Green Tara Circles and the Labyrinth.
4 retreat huts are available for personal retreats. They are all simple bush huts which offer a wonderful opportunity for rest, contemplation and renewal. Unlike many NZ huts, they are set within a dedicated sanctuary, and so give a retreat within a retreat!
Please see our website for details on our retreat huts and points to consider if you are interested in making a booking.
