At least sometimes every person would like to walk in a real forest, look for fragrant and tasty mushrooms and enjoy the excitement of collecting them. In addition, bringing home a basket of honey mushrooms is a great pride and satisfaction.

The Tula region has always been proud of the presence in its forests of popular and beloved types of mushrooms: russula, chanterelles, boletus, boletus and butter. In addition to these fruiting bodies, autumn, summer and winter mushrooms grow in the Tula region. That is why lovers of "quiet hunting" should visit all the forests of this region.

Where honey mushrooms grow in the Tula region, only avid mushroom pickers know. But they sincerely share this information with novice "hunters" for the mushroom harvest. For example, mushroom places of honey agarics are located in the Tula region, mainly in the northwestern and northern parts. In broad-leaved and small-leaved forests, which are dominated by birch, oak, linden, and aspen, you can safely pick up a variety of mushrooms, including popular and fast-growing mushrooms. On the border with the forest-steppe in the southern region of the region, in oak-ash forests and forest plantations, there are autumn or "Uspensky" mushrooms. The autumn species of honey agarics is called so because they begin their rapid growth precisely on the Orthodox holiday of the Most Holy Theotokos. On this day, you can safely go to the forest for mushrooms, and believe me, you will not come back empty-handed.

Are there mushrooms in the Tula region and where to look for them?

Where in the Tula region do autumn mushrooms grow, and in which forests can you go for them? The most popular area among the local population is the Suvorov District. The forests near the settlements of Suvorovo, Khanino and Chekalino are especially called mushroom.

Mushroom places for the distribution of honey agarics in the Tula region are forests near the village of Spitsino, as well as near the village of Ozerny. In broad-leaved and pine forests located in the Aleksinsky district near the village of Aleksino, you can collect not only honey mushrooms, but also chanterelles, russula, boletus.

All fruiting bodies prefer to "cooperate" with certain plants. Therefore, every mushroom picker knows where to look for honey mushrooms in the Tula region. These mushrooms prefer birch, linden, acacia, ash, oak, less often they can be found in pine forests. Sometimes honey agarics can even choose the roots of shrub plants. However, the trees they inhabit are dying or "diseased." Honey mushrooms give great preference for their settlement to rotten stumps, tree trunks felled by a windbreak or fallen branches.

Many novice mushroom pickers ask if there are mushrooms in the Tula region in the Leninsky district? In the area of ​​the settlement of Demidovka, in deciduous forests, you can find autumn mushrooms, as well as mushrooms and boletus. The Dubensky district in the Tula region is rich in "Uspensky" mushrooms. In these deciduous forests, where birches and oaks predominate, there are a lot of mushrooms, especially since the mentioned trees are located in wetlands. The ravines in this area abound with meadow mushrooms.

Where else can you collect honey agarics in the Tula region and when to collect them?

And where else can you collect honey agarics in the Tula region? In the Kimovsky district, near the village of Bugalki, there is a beautiful forest with an abundance of various fruit bodies, including honey agarics. But in the Yasnogorsk region in mixed deciduous forests, you can collect not only autumn mushrooms, but also winter ones. There are no problems at all for mushroom pickers with winter mushrooms, because these fruiting bodies do not have false counterparts. In addition, winter mushrooms are very tasty and contain many useful vitamins for the human body.

For those who are just starting their mushroom experience, I would like to note that you need to know the timing of when to collect mushrooms in the Tula region. Usually the harvesting season starts in July and lasts until the end of October. But if the weather is warm and sunny, then the dates are shifted until mid-November. However, the peak collection of boletus still falls at the end of August, as well as September. To find the most mushroom spots, you need to go to the forest in the early morning, when it is still foggy. Winter mushrooms begin their growth from October and continue until March. In severe frosts, these fruiting bodies do not disappear, but “fall asleep”. And when there are thaws, they begin to grow again. They can be collected even under a layer of snow.

Fallen rotten tree trunks or stumps left after felling are excellent areas for collecting honey agarics. Plantations and woodlands of the Odoyevsky district have always attracted fans of "quiet hunting". Once you visit these territories just once, you will come back here for mushrooms every year - these forests will give you an unforgettable experience, including large mushroom harvests.

Mushroom places where honey agarics are collected in the Tula region

There are several more places in the Tula region where honey mushrooms are collected. So, many people note a pine forest near Aleksino or Kornitskaya zaseka. The forests in the Chernsky and Efremovsky regions are rich in honey agarics. I would like to say that almost all the forests of the Tula region, especially where there is a lot of heat and moisture, are rich in various types of mushrooms, including everyone's favorite mushrooms. During the summer-autumn period, each mushroom picker can visit several waves of growth of fruit bodies. This time can include up to 4 waves of mushroom picking.

For example, having driven away from Zaitsevo in the direction of Voskresensk, along the road there are forests in which there are many honey agarics. Sometimes the mushroom picker has no time to straighten his back, since mushrooms grow here in large colonies.

I would like to note that in the vicinity of Tula there are also many places where you can collect honey mushrooms. However, experts advise not to do this, because within the boundaries of urban areas there are many industrial enterprises that have a bad effect on the environment. Mushrooms have the ability to absorb all harmful substances, including heavy metal salts. For this reason, it is harmful to use such mushrooms.

Experienced mushroom pickers have identified pedestrian routes for beginner lovers of "quiet hunting" indicating where in the Tula region you can collect honey agarics. These forested areas are easily accessible by car or train.

For example, to get to the forest near the village of Volchya Dubrava, which is located in the Teplo-Ogarevsky district, you need to go from the Tula bus station by bus "Tula-Efremov" or "Tula-Teploe". On the road you will need only 1 hour and 40 minutes.

To get to the Karnitskie Zassek, which is in the Venevsky district, you need to leave the Zarechye bus station by the Tula-Venev bus to the stop of the village of Zasechny. It is only 4 km from the village to the forest. Therefore, you will spend about 2 hours for the entire journey.

Those who want to wander in the pine forest near Aleksino and gather honey mushrooms here should leave Tula by minibus to the Aleksino stop, then go outside the village and walk to the pine forest. The time spent on the road will be only 1 hour.

Mushroom places where honey agarics are collected in the Tula region are called Chernsky, Belevsky and Suvorovsky districts. In addition, experts note that it is on the territory of these forests that the most environmentally friendly mushrooms grow.

I would like to note that any area of ​​the Tula region where forests are located is mushroom. If it is not possible to get to the target by minibuses, use the electric trains. All forests in the region are ecologically clean, which means fertile.
