Mushroom foraging guided hike in Erfurt

Discover the hidden treasures of Erfurt’s forests on this 3-hour mushroom foraging guided hike.

You’ll explore lush woodlands alive with colour and life, where each season brings new mushrooms to find — no two hikes are ever the same. During the warmer months, you’ll hunt for prized species like boletus, chanterelles, and porcini, learning to identify fungi while sharpening your senses and connecting with nature.

Experienced guides provide step-by-step guidance, tips, and support, making your foraging adventure safe, fun, and rewarding. With a bit of luck, you’ll uncover delicious finds such as curly chanterelles, chestnut mushrooms, or parasol mushrooms.

You’ll enjoy tranquil pauses and insightful discussions, learning about the forest ecosystem, its inhabitants, and the crucial role mushrooms play.
