With more than 700 species recorded at The Lodge, we will look at ways to identify fungi and tips on how to photograph them but be aware that this is not a photography workshop.  

 This guided walk is designed for adults and teens with a general interest in fungi and does not focus on what is edible or poisonous for potential foragers. It is not a foraging walk, and fungi will not be collected for consumption.   

Meet by the picnic area outside the Shop.  

There will be a family-oriented walk, aimed at younger audiences and their guardians, on Thursday 30th October.
