Learning to pick mushrooms is one of those activities that you really enjoy when we first tried it. It's not just about enjoy nature and its wonders at a time of year, autumn, which exudes beauty wherever you look. No. It is also for everything it brings us in terms of benefits for our body and mind. And learning to pick mushrooms is not only about that, but also about walking, relaxing, disconnecting, activating our senses, giving our eyes a break and feeling much better, in short.
For this reason, in La Dehesa Experiences We want to propose that you delve into The fantastic world of mycology by the hand of our guides and in an environment as spectacular as the one that surrounds our glamping, the Sierra Morena of Cordoba.
What is mycology
Science, art, hobby, sport, pastime, it could be said that mycology is a bit of all of this. In strictly semantic terms, the so-called mycetology It is a branch of biology whose object of study are fungi, one of the inhabitants of our planet about which there is still much to investigate and discover. In fact, it is a group of organisms that does not fall within the animal kingdom, nor within the plant kingdom or even within the protist kingdom, a whole mishmash of living beings (the latter) that researchers have put together in a sort of junk drawer that is difficult to classify.
Thus, mushrooms and fungi are really curious organisms about which there is always something to learn. And that's why they are so interesting.
In a broader sense, mycology or the science of knowing how to pick mushrooms is an art surrounded by extensive knowledge. But it is also a sport in which our mind must be awake, our senses sharpened and our body active but relaxed. Knowing the different species (it is practically impossible to know them all), discovering the places where they appear, knowing how to differentiate them from other very similar ones, discovering their properties... Learning to pick mushrooms is a world that, we are sure, will hook you.
