Autumn colours, forest walks and peaceful escapes
With the first September rains and cooler nights, the forests of Berguedà, Catllaràs and Picancel come alive again. Saffron milk caps, chanterelles, porcini and yellowfoot mushrooms appear among the moss and fallen leaves, marking the start of the most magical season in the Pyrenees.
The mushroom season is the perfect time to reconnect with nature, slow down and enjoy the peaceful mountain air. At Pirineu Turístic’s apartments —Cal Barraqué, La Pobla, La Pallissa and El Pati— you’ll find the ideal base for a weekend getaway surrounded by forest paths, pure air and local flavours.
After a morning in the woods, there’s nothing better than cooking your harvest: omelettes with saffron milk caps, wild mushroom rice, or grilled meats with freshly picked fungi. Each apartment offers a fully equipped kitchen for a warm and authentic mountain stay.
Always remember to respect the forest: only collect mushrooms you know, avoid damaging the soil and use wicker baskets so spores can spread again.
The true joy of foraging lies not in a full basket, but in enjoying the walk.
Take autumn slowly. Breathe, listen and feel the silence of the Pyrenean woods.
At Pirineu Turístic, we welcome you to experience it all.
