Take your wicker basket, walk through the woods and be guided by the intense scent
Porcini, finferli, gallinacci, nails and many other varieties that you can find on the Piné Plateau and in the Cembra Valley. Take your wicker basket, walk through the woods and be guided by the intense scent. Autumn is the best time to go mushrooming. A true moment of relaxation accompanied by the challenge of finding the biggest pig. The pleasure lies precisely in walking slowly, peering under the leaves, insisting on the search and, in the end, finding the mushrooms.
