Description of Mycological route in Comarca de Pinares, Soria 4h
What do you think about walking through the Pinares region while you look at the mushrooms that you can collect to take home? An outdoor activity that will make you feel in full contact with nature.
For lovers of mushrooms, nature and gastronomy, mycology is the right activity. The best mycological excursions are with us in the Pinares region, considered one of the most important mycological areas in Spain. It is a protected natural region located between the provinces of Soria and Burgosand extends across the Iberian Mountains.
A thick forest that serves as home to more than 60 edible species of mushrooms among which boletus, chanterelles, perrochicos, marzuelos and senderillas stand out. With the help of a guide you will be able to recognize all these varieties as they appear on our path. You should know that to harvest mushrooms you have to cut the trunk and not uproot it, so you can take it with you in perfect condition.
To carry out this mycological activity it is mandatory wear comfortable clothing as well as sneakers or mountain boots. In addition, you will have to bring a basket and knife to save all the mushrooms you find. The excursion can be in the morning or afternoon, with a duration of 4 hours.

I've finally had an authentic "setera" experience: no Latin words! A walk through the bush learning -in situ- how boletus or mushrooms are born (and hide) as Luis, our guide, likes to call them. A great guy who knows his mountains, generous and kind. To repeat next season, without a doubt.Review useful for 0 people Did you find this helpful? Yes

Fantastic excursion with Víctor through the mountains of Soria. Very educational and entertaining, the hours passed without realizing it, he knew how to convey his enthusiasm and respect for nature.
We were also lucky that Marina accompanied us because we were able to share other types of experiences with her.
And yes, we were able to pick mushrooms and learn new edible varieties, what Víctor taught us has helped us to spend 4 wonderful days in that environment. We hope to meet them again in another adventure.Company's response:
We are very happy, it was a real pleasure. With fellow travelers like this it's nice! Greetings and good luck, Ana! Happy to see people like you enjoying nature :-) See you soon!

The guide was not an expert in mushrooms. He was only going to pick mushrooms and some chanterelles. There were other mushrooms that when asked about them he commented that he only collected the few that he knew. The mushroom picking license was not formalized or processed. So we couldn't take out all our baskets and store them in case the guards saw us and asked for them, the guide being the only one carrying them.
For €25 per person it leaves a lot to be desired. To collect mushrooms we had not paid this price, because the 2-day license is cheaper.Company's response:
Good morning Elizabeth,
First of all, let me tell you that we feel very bad that we have not met the expectations that you had in our experience.
Tell you that our experience is generally based on visiting the forest and collecting mushrooms that we know and are safe to eat. Accompanied by a small experience that unites the walk and the mushroom picking.
In our experience that you can see on our website, we do not explain that we make an assessment of all the mushrooms in the forest and what you ask for.We understand that there may be some companies that do it and it is what you expected. In fact, we do offer it on a few occasions with groups of more than 10 people in which I am the guide and we do what you tell me. That is, with a price of €50 per person, including a small tasting.
We have had many outings for a few years now and most people have left happy. I understand that you know a little more about the mycological world and you expected more.
We invite you to meet me the next time you visit Soria (Víctor)
Once again, we are sorry that we did not meet the expectations that you wanted.Greetings and thanks for your opinion.
