Event information
Temenos Retreat is located in the small village of McGregor in the mountains of the Western Cape and its name is derived from the Greek word meaning sacred place. The Retreat is known for its calming gardens that complement its ethos of simplicity and the practice of mindfulness. The gardens offer a contemplative setting that support the embrace of inner stillness and are central to the retreats options that are available.
