Deal overview
Don't miss out on autumn if you love mushrooms and the universe that surrounds them. Come to our Mycological Field Trips walking for about 3 hours through El Barraco, this beautiful municipality just 25 minutes from the capital of Ávila and 1 hour from Madrid.
The Alberche Valley is a great place to discover the ecosystems of these forests, while an expert tells you all the curiosities of the wonderful Kingdom of Mushrooms.
The most prosperous months for searching for mushrooms are October, November and December, so any of our outings will become an unforgettable day breathing fresh air.
A charming activity designed for groups of 10 or more people, traveling through an environment where they come into contact with several different ecosystems, thus guaranteeing the possibility of observing more diversity of mycological species.
You will tour Mount Encinar de El Barraco, passing through centuries-old oaks, also pine forests and meadows. An expert will assist you personally along the way to identify the species collected and inform you about them.
At the end, we will improvise a classroom in the middle of Nature with the mushrooms collected together, to identify them, differentiate them and, above all, know how to distinguish those that are edible from those that are not. It will have been worth it to have lived this beautiful day in the company of people who have the same interest.
*A minimum group of 10 people is required for the activity to go ahead.
