Lapland is the world’s largest area for picking organic berries and mushrooms. Wild berries and mushrooms can be freely picked in Finland's forests under everyman's right, but be careful which varieties you pick, as some berries and fungi are poisonous. But no worries, your experienced nature guide will help you determine eatable options. The berries nurtured by the midnight sun are also healthy, and can be eaten just as they are when you find them. We take a ride to secret berries’ & mushrooms’ place to be ready to pick up these healthy gifts of nature. During our walk we fill up our baskets and of course taste some berries. Trip is suitable for families with children. At the end of the walk through the forest, we will cook a delicious mushroom soup on the fire. The best picking season for most mushrooms and berries runs from late July to early October.
