TamanGa Retreat, Austria

Vegan Retreat in Austria

TamanGa is surrounded by nature, near the wine and flower village of Gamlitz in southern Styria. Here is gripping calm , charged by the energy of the surrounding forests, vineyards and our organic site. This framework carries you, promotes physical and energetic balance and can bring deep, consciousness-expanding self-awareness.

In early spring and fall, Dr. Ruediger Dahlke does the traditional fasting weeks (fasting + yoga, fasting + hiking, Zen fasting….), but also fasting + hiking as well as the connected breath or seminars on integral medicine are on his program .

​There is also an interesting range of courses offered by other seminar leaders (yoga, meditation, dance …) on the extensive grounds, which you can choose from if you wish.

​Or just enjoy and let your soul dangle in order to meet your life in a new way, strengthened and full of inner radiance. With the “TamanGa cure on your own” and many valuable tips from Ruediger, you can fully exploit the possibilities of coming to rest and finding yourself in TamanGa.

Therapists and counselors support you according to your wishes and needs on your way to self-discovery, expansion of consciousness and your physical and energetic balance .

​The TamanGa team will not see you as guests, but as part of our human family. We want to meet you with heart and love, so that you feel welcome here and immediately safe, and maybe even a bit “at home”.

The TamanGa nature cure

The rooms are located in different buildings on the 11-hectare site: the hermitage in the three wood-clay Ritais, elegantly furnished holiday apartments and cozy rooms and studios in the old building.

From the garden to the kitchen

The heart of TamanGa, the “Garden Gamlitz”* is a huge organic garden . What is freshly harvested here and by the farmers in the area every day comes straight into the kitchen and can be found on the buffet – (almost 😉 completely without an ecological footprint, enchants with peace-food vegan dishes that are full of value.

It is our wish to impart knowledge about the cultivation and care of plants and the effects of herbs and medicinal herbs to you. How does a home garden work and how can you create one yourself and use it as a healthy resource for your family? Even if you don’t save any money with it, the quality is unbeatable and at some point you will become addicted to this standard and to the experiences in your own garden. Also: those who eat vegan develop a much more sensitive sense of taste. It is becoming necessary to eat organic – not only for the sake of health but also to maintain the joy of eating.

Give time in TamanGa!

Escape from everyday life, immerse yourself in the tranquility in the midst of nature. Let yourself be pampered, go for a walk, hike or do something good for your body with a fasting week. You choose the value of the voucher, we will be happy to send it to you or the recipient with a personal dedication. Simply call 0043 3453 33600 or send us an email .

Treat yourself to a break and be yourself. Embark on the path of well-being according to your taste and use TamanGa 100%.

​On our wonderful and wonderfully left patch of earth you have various simple but effective ways to find your inner peace and balance again. Special recordings by Ruediger Dahlke show and explain these possibilities to you and he gives valuable tips on how to use them and discover this garden of life on your own.

Our hermitage

The Klause is your small private room, your retreat, which offers you just enough to make you feel comfortable and immediately at home. This is where high quality meets minimalism. We want to stick to the simple lifestyle and life in TamanGa takes place outdoors in the large garden room.

Each hermitage has been lovingly assigned a theme. Some of these issues have to do with the primal principles. Just let chance decide – the theme clause that is or will be assigned to you may have something to do with you and can offer you inspiration to meditate on it during your stay.

The Klausen are deliberately free of wifi and television to give our guests even more time to relax and regenerate (LAN cable available at reception). We also ask our guests to at least turn off the internet on their cell phones to reduce the “radiation salad”.
