Description
We’re a not-for-profit eco-lodge and education centre with the goal to make the world a much better place through education and a bit of technology.
The institute is located in 100 acres of bush in Raglan, New Zealand. We cater for a wide range of groups wanting to experience the magic of Mount Karioi, the tranquil bush and the recharge of the west coast.
We do this with 3 main activities at the centre:
1. We host eco-tech camps
2. We are an accredited facility to train teachers
3. We provide leadership development to businesses.
As a not-for-profit, we use all net proceeds from our programs to subsidise and sponsor schools to use the camp.

What else ...
Raglan is a world-famous surf town but is also more locally known for its environmental movements. Raglan has been voted one of NZ most beautiful towns. There is so much to do around this area for outdoor lovers, sailing, surfing, biking, hiking etc
Our lodge is 10 minutes outside of the main town so you will want to have your own transport to get around.
