Our woodlands, largely tended and protected like the nature parks, are packed with mushrooms, much sought-after by lovers of the mountains and the Dolomites in particular.

But watch out! While for the mushroom hunter, a good harvest is an unparalleled reward, past excesses and the need to protect these forests have led to strict regulations on mushroom picking.

In South Tyrol and so in this area as well, picking is allowed only for those over 14 years of age, on even days and at set times (from 7am to 7pm) upon presentation of a day pass that you can buy from the tourist offices or local authorities (€ 8). This allows you to pick up to 1kg of mushrooms per person and per day.
