Serving Mushroom Growers Around the World Since 1992
"Mushroaming" tours to Tibet are once in a lifetime fungal, botanical and cultural experiences in some of the most stunning landscapes on the planet. Tibet is not only endowed with an incomparably rich, ancient spiritual culture but also a long tradition in collecting, eating and trading mushrooms. During the summer, mushroom collection and markets are peaking. The group will encounter matsutake, boletes, Caesars, chanterelles, Ganoderma, gypsies and many other exotic species throughout the tour. Explore the forests, meadows and mountains of Kongpo, Tibet's extremely biodiverse southeastern region. In addition the group will experience sacred sites in Lhasa and beyond. Daniel Winkler leads the tour supported by Tibetan guides.
