Mushroom season in La Rioja
From the Ebro to the Cameros range: beech and pine woods and pastures where St George's mushroom opens the season in spring. Today the forest in La Rioja has not woken up yet. When it does, the king oyster mushrooms, the charbonniers and the saffron milk caps will lead the way.
Here the land runs between 269 and 1,951 m, and half of it lies below 789 m. What covers most ground: grassland (26%), farmland (24%) and Pyrenean oak (11%).
