The Tara Rokpa Centre (TRC)

TRC is a peaceful healing centre in the African bushveld. It is situated in a wooded valley of the Groot Marico District, bounded by perennial streams, and surrounded by rolling hills, on 280 hectares of land. The environment is pristine, the air and water are unpolluted and the night sky is fantastic.
We have established Four Wings of activity: healing therapies, environmental preservation, spiritual development and community activities. These serve to accomplish our overall vision of supporting people to develop wisdom and compassion.


We work to offer ‘help where help is needed‘.

ABOUT US

Tara Rokpa Centre is a peaceful retreat centre in the Groot Marico District. It is situated in a wooded valley, bounded by perennial streams, and surrounded by rolling hills, on 280 hectares of land. The environment is pristine, the air unpolluted and the night sky fantastic.

The centre is in the remote North West Province, South Africa, just 250km from Johannesburg and 160km south of Gaborone, Botswana. Tara Rokpa Centre was established under the guidance of Akong Tulku Rinpoche. He was a meditation master of the Karma Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism, who passed away in 2013. Rinpoche left us with a vast 1000 year vision for the centre, which seeks to provide a place of peace and refuge for all our visitors, for many years to come.

Although our roots are Buddhist, the centre is multi-purpose and offers opportunities for spiritual, emotional, social and environmental healing. The centre caters for up to sixty people seeking a quiet place to recharge and recover from their busy lives in the urban centres. It is ideal for resting, walking in nature, or mountain biking on quiet gravel roads. When not in use for therapy or dharma courses, we welcome individuals, families and larger groups to use our accommodation and share the beauty of our retreat centre.

TRC is unique in Southern Africa as we provide opportunities for medium-term, personal and Ngondro retreats, with retreat support. The duration of these retreats is from two weeks to six months, in the Tara’s Valley Retreat House, which accommodates up to seven retreaters.

Accommodation at the Tara Rokpa Centre

TRC is situated in the North West province about 3 hours drive from Gauteng and 2 hours from Gaborone. It is 25 kms from the small town of Groot Marico, and 45 kms from Zeerust. The centre caters for up to sixty practitioners, or those seeking a quiet place to recharge and recover from busy lives in the urban centres. It is ideal for resting, walking in nature, mountain biking on quiet gravel roads or diving at the Eye (die Oog). When not in use for therapy or dharma courses, we welcome individuals, families and larger groups to use our accommodation and share the beauty of our retreat centre. The farmhouse-style accommodation is comfortable and clean and a variety of different properties are available.
