Foraging in the wild - day trip from Brasov
Overview
Looking for wild plants and mushrooms in the wilderness is more fun than you think. Learn the basics of foraging from a passionate guide. Together, you will discover what to avoid, what you can pick and what you must not touch.
Your guide will pick you up from your accommodation and together, you will go in the forests around Brasov in search for wild mushrooms, plants and forest fruits. Hiking and foraging isn't easy, depending on the terrain, so keep in mind that you have to be fit in order to walk around the forest, sometimes on steep terrain, loose rocks or mud.
