Psilocybin retreats in the Netherlands
3 psilocybin centres in the Netherlands, listed because the substance they serve is legal there. This is a short list we have compiled so far from public sources, not every operator in the Netherlands. Nothing operating underground is listed, however good its reputation.
Beckley Retreats, Netherlands
Netherlands
The Dutch arm of the same programme, serving legal sclerotia rather than mushrooms.
Kiyumi
Netherlands
Trauma-informed six-day retreats capped at around sixteen people, led by Amit Elan, with Gabor Maté attached as an ambassador. Work with the LGBTQI+ community and with autoimmune conditions is an explicit focus rather than an afterthought.
Evolute Institute
Netherlands
Pairs legal truffle retreats with structured coaching and integration, aimed at people who want the experience embedded in ongoing work rather than treated as a single event.
Is psilocybin legal in the Netherlands?
Legal · Psilocybin (truffles)Sclerotia, sold as 'truffles', remain legal; dried mushrooms were banned in 2008.
The 2008 ban covered fresh and dried psilocybin mushrooms but not sclerotia, the underground part of the same organism. Dutch retreats therefore serve truffles. The distinction is legally real but often blurred in marketing. A centre advertising 'mushrooms' in the Netherlands is describing something the ban covers.
