The Retreat

The retreat is held between Friday afternoon and Sunday lunch. It takes place in a beautiful house in the East of the Netherlands, 2 hours away by train from Amsterdam, located in one hectare of land which includes a beautiful garden, a large pond and an abundance of trees. Its enclosed setting ensures privacy while its new build design and thoughtful decor make it both comfortable and tranquil.

The accommodations feature 2 or 4 beds and provide ample space for rest and relaxation. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite bathroom and is suitable for people with minor mobility difficulties. You’ll have the chance to indicate your preference for bedrooms when you apply, as long as they are available.

Registration & Payment

We propose a sliding scale that depends on how much you can or are willing to pay. The aim of the sliding scale is to help create more social equality by increasing accessibility to transformative experiences for people with more limited financial resources. The sliding scale is explained below. Due to high demand we suggest that you secure your spot early.

• €1500 – €1900 supports our sustainability and growth and allows us to offer retreats and individual sessions at reduced prices for those with access to less resources.
• €1100 – €1500 supports us to make our work sustainable and be able to offer retreat programs on a longer-term basis.
• €885 – €1100 is the bare minimum that makes it possible for us to run the retreat if you are in a restricted financial situation. The amount of places are limited and depend on other participants' contributions.

The price includes the psilocybin retreat with full board and lodging, together with the additional preparation and integration sessions mentioned above. Prices include 21% VAT. Transportation to a nearby train station at a scheduled time is included.

For legal reasons, the price of the truffles is not included in the retreat price. Please cater for about €20-35 to be paid on site for the truffles, just before the start of the retreat.

We believe in creating more social equality by increasing accessibility to transformative experiences for people with lower incomes. To support this, we propose a sliding scale. This helps us provide spaces for participants who have more limited financial resources. If you feel that it is only reasonably possible for you to attend the retreat in the lower price bracket, get in touch with us and let us know your current situation and how this retreat could benefit you.

You can book your retreat here. There is no commitment until after the first screening is processed.

Important information about the use of truffles

The psychedelic truffle retreats we offer in the Netherlands are intended for personal growth, spiritual exploration and educational purposes only. Participation in these retreats involves the consumption of psychedelic truffles, which contain psychoactive substances that can produce profound alterations in consciousness and perception.

Participation in our retreats requires that all participants be in good physical and mental health. By attending, you acknowledge that you are physically fit and have no medical conditions that would preclude your safe participation. This includes, but is not limited to, heart conditions, severe mental illness, or recent surgeries. You must inform us of any pre-existing conditions, medications, or allergies prior to the retreat.

Psychedelic truffles can produce a range of effects, including but not limited to: visual and auditory hallucinations, altered sense of time and space, emotional and psychological shifts, and, in rare cases, anxiety or panic. These effects can be intense and unpredictable. While we provide a safe and supportive environment, we cannot predict or control individual experiences.

The experiences facilitated during our retreats do not constitute psychotherapy or any other form of professional mental health treatment and so are not a substitute for such treatment. Our retreats are not designed to treat, diagnose, or cure any mental health disorders or medical conditions. Any guidance or support provided is for the purpose of enhancing your personal experience and should not be interpreted as professional therapy or counselling. If you are currently undergoing treatment for any mental health issues, it is advisable that you consult with your healthcare provider before participating.

Psychedelic truffles are legal in the Netherlands; however, their use may be restricted or illegal in other jurisdictions. It is your responsibility to ensure compliance with local laws if travelling to and from the retreat.
