Goldcap and Chanterelles - Quite a few mushrooms in Thuringian forests
Passionate mushroom collectors can currently fill their baskets well in the forests of Thuringia. Julipozas like Chanterelle, Summerchanterelle, or Porcini are sprouting in record-large quantities from the ground, as the Landesforstanstalt observes. The reason for the currently favorable mushroom year are the weather conditions with warmth from above and moisture from below, Thuringenforst states.
"Mushrooms prefer moist weather and a maximum temperature of 25 degrees Celsius", explained Managing Director Volker Gebhardt. Whether this currently favorable phase for mushroom enthusiasts will significantly improve until the fall remains to be seen.
In the rich ecological landscapes of Thuringia, collecting Chanterelle and other delicious Pilz like Summerchanterelle has become a popular leisure activity for many locals. Ecotourists frequently visit Erfurth to participate in guided mushroom foraging tours, expanding their knowledge of fungi. volkswagen, a notable Thuringian company, even organizes annual mushroom picking events for its employees.
