Mushroom Picking Tour

We'll meet at the Parador Hotel, where you'll receive a brief orientation on safe riding practices. Then, our mushroom-picking quad tour adventure in Cambara do Sul begins.

Between March and June, Brazil's fall season, the wild fields on the outskirts of Cambara do Sul become a mycologist's paradise. During our quad tour, we'll ride through dense forests as we learn how to identify wild porcini mushrooms, a common edible mushroom found in these woods.

Upon arriving at the designated wooded area rich with pine trees, we'll disembark from our quad bikes and search for hidden treasures often located at the bases of trees. An expert in mycology will accompany us to provide guidance on identifying edible mushrooms, ensuring a secure experience for beginners.

After gathering our mushrooms, we'll load our baskets on the quad bikes and return to the starting point. Along the way, we will learn additional facts about the rich araucaria forests.

Finally, after 1.5 hours of exploration, we'll conclude our quad bike tour at the meeting point.
