On Sunday 10 October 2026, a guided and commented mushroom-foraging walk is open to the public, starting at 2 p.m. The activity lasts roughly two and a half hours, ending around 4.30 p.m.
The session begins with a welcome and practical introduction covering the basics of mushroom picking: edible species, look-alikes to avoid, and ethical harvesting rules. Participants can ask questions freely. Afterward, the group sets off on a guided hike through the undergrowth. Every fungus encountered is identified on the spot, with explanations of its traits, habitat, and potential uses in the kitchen.
Practical tip: wear sturdy walking boots, carry a wicker basket or cloth bag rather than a plastic one, and bring a small knife for cutting stems at ground level. Check the weather forecast in advance — a wet autumn often means a bumper flush, but trails will be slippery and muddy.
