Where are mushrooms growing today?
Fungelo helps you find which forest areas look most promising right now for the mushroom you’re after. It takes rain, soil moisture, temperature and habitat into account. Every score also shows how reliable it is.
Before you head out
1Choose a species and a day
Choose the mushrooms you’re looking for, such as porcini or chanterelles, and when you’d like to go to the forest.
- Example
2Find promising areas
Compare areas on the map by their activity score for the species you chose. Fungelo takes rain, soil moisture, temperature and habitat into account, and shows how reliable each score is.
- Example
3Check the collecting rules
Before you go, check the collecting limits and nearby protected areas, so you can plan a responsible visit to the forest.
How reliable is the forecast?
Fungelo rates how favourable conditions are for the chosen species in each area. A high score doesn’t mean you’re sure to find mushrooms, so every forecast also shows how reliable it is.

Forecasts checked against the past
We compare the forecasts for each species with data from past seasons. Until that check is complete, the species is clearly marked “Not yet validated”.

No scores in protected areas
Forest reserves and protected areas are marked on the map, but we show no scores for them. The area data comes from each country's national agencies and the European Environment Agency (EEA).
