ABOUT THE WALKS  
Come for a walk and learn the tools that will help you to understand the puzzle of mushroom identification, the vital roles fungi play in ecosystems and dispel the many myths surrounding these fascinating organisms.

Every mushroom walk is a new experience! Due to the ephemeral nature of fungi, you can walk the same track only days apart and your experience may be radically different. Fungi are unpredictable, surprising organisms that appear in a seemingly endless diversity of forms.

The majority of mushroom tours available locally take place in pine plantations. Partial Veil offers one of the only mushroom tours that focus primarily on native fungi in native environments. Included with the walk is a custom made Partial Veil booklet with notes on common species and a basic starter guide to fungi identification and ecology to help you remember information from the walk.
