Nau mai ki  Rāroa Marae

Ko Tamaruarangi te hapū, ko Te Poho o Tāne Moeahi te whare tīpuna, ko Ngāi Tūhoe te iwi.

Bordering native bush, Rāroa Marae offers a peaceful and welcoming environment where you can truly connect with te ao—the natural world—and experience the manaakitanga (warm hospitality) of the hau kāinga (people of the marae).

Our marae has hosted various community events, including wānanga, workshops, and cultural learning experiences, making it a popular venue for those looking to reconnect with their heritage, whakapapa, or cultural identity.

To reach us, take a short journey from the charming Waimana village, crossing a small stream to arrive at our marae. While weather conditions may influence your travel plans, don’t let this deter you from experiencing the tranquillity and beauty of Rāroa Marae. Come and immerse yourself in the essence of our unique pā!
