Mushrooms picking... is for every age!

It is a passion that attracts every mountains lover.
You can practice a sport and in the meanwhile live the wildest nature, enjoying the chance of admiring it, respecting it and picking its delicious fruits.
Moreover you can experience the whole valley, its culture, gastronomy, costumes, traditions and mountain people’s history.
A country cooking, rich in forgotten flavours and smells, completes a day dedicated to mushrooms picking in the best way.
If you know its environment deeply you can strengthen your respect for the mountains that become a familiar home for leisure time.
 
In exchange for this, you should follow a few common sense rules: respect of picking days, maximum daily quantity allowed and picking methods.
