On Saturday 20 September , a half-day and not too demanding walk in the woods that gave birth to the Porcini Mushroom PGI of Borgotaro, to learn which are the tree species with which the King of the forest is able to coexist best. The expertise of a mycologist will increase our knowledge, explaining and telling us about the lesser-known species of mushrooms that we will encounter in the woods. Turning and turning, we will also encounter important signs of the past, in the woods: traces of known stories and mysterious stories, surrounded by beautiful specimens of chestnut, fir and veteran beech. We will return to the village for lunchtime: those who want can taste some mushroom-based dishes in Borgotaro.
