Land
Rangjung Yeshe Gomde was purchased in spring 2004 by the German speaking Sangha of Chökyi
Nyima Rinpoche – the founder and spiritual head of the land. Known locally as Guth zu Rath
(Good Advice), the estate is idyllically situated in the foothills of the Upper Austrian Alps.
The main building is an impressive castle-like manor sheltering a large inner court yard ideal
for large gatherings. The building has more than a thousand square meters of living space offering
great possibilities for various types of spiritual activity. The fifteen acres of land includes
a small natural forest and offers a breath-taking view of the foothills of the Austrian Alps.

Location
Rangjung Yeshe Gomde is peacefully situated just outside the town of Gmunden in Upper
Austria. The land is centrally located in the heart of Europe and is easily reached within a
few hours from many European cities such as Munich, Vienna, Graz and Zurich. >>> Map
