Get ready for a wild adventure in the mountains of Dali! This mushroom-picking experience takes you along forest trails, where you’ll breathe in the fresh mountain air and search for Yunnan’s famous wild fungi — a seasonal delicacy and a big part of local life. In Yunnan, mushrooms aren’t just food — they’re a way of life. With over 800 edible species, the region celebrates mushroom season like a festival. Along the way, you’ll learn how to spot different types, understand their role in local cuisine, and pick safely and responsibly. You’ll be equipped with a basket and tools, then head out to explore the hills like a real forager. There’s time to rest, enjoy a fruit picnic and snap photos. It’s a joyful, hands-on way to connect with nature — and a taste of a tradition Yunnan people treasure! Meet your host After quitting his job in the fast-paced city of Shenzhen and traveling around China, Lu found his heart in Dali. Three years ago, he brought together two of his biggest passions — hiking and mushroom hunting — and turned them into something fun to share. What started as solo adventures soon grew into a team of nature-loving friends who now lead these joyful, hands-on experiences.
