Mushrooms for everybody
We went another year to the Montes de Málaga to better understand the nature that surrounds us so close to Colmenar. The activity started at the Hotel Belén, where we had breakfast or a good coffee. Then we left and went to Las Contadoras, the educational nature center in the parque, where Alejandro received us, the same monitor that came with us last year.
After a short explanation in which we learned about the different species in the Montes de Málaga, we took the Pocopán walk, a very nice route with spectacular views. Along the way we were able to find some mushrooms; Alejandro quickly identified them and always showed us the differences in form.
After a while we walk into the shady forest, where there are usually more mushrooms, and there we divided in groups and could freely investigate the area and pick mushrooms. Most of us have found mushrooms, but the lucky ones could fill their basket with much more than others!
When we returned to the centre warm food was prepared for us: loin in butter, cheese, tripe, squid ... and an exquisite sweet wine.
Thank you all for participating and enjoy your collected mushrooms.
