In the mushroom season, the numerous forest areas once again invite you to go on mushroom hikes. This educational hike will give you an overview of the local mushroom species in the Süssendell forest area.
The hike is led by Dr. Uwe Koch, a mushroom expert certified by the German Society for Mycology. He will take you on a fascinating discovery tour into the world of mushrooms in the Stolberg forest. How do you identify mushrooms, what do you need to look out for when picking them and which mushrooms should you avoid at all costs? These and many other questions will be answered on site.

Please bring a mushroom basket, a (folding) knife, sturdy shoes and weatherproof clothing, the hike takes place in all weathers (exception: severe weather warning from the German Weather Service). The focus of the tour is on imparting knowledge; however, if you have collected a few mushrooms, these will be checked afterwards by our mushroom expert and released for consumption.

Please note that the hike is mostly off the beaten track. The route is therefore not suitable for baby carriages. Unfortunately it is not possible to take dogs with you, we ask for your understanding.

The tours start at 10:00 am and last approx. 3 hours.

Adults € 10.00, children up to and including 16 years € 5.00
