Mushroom Foraging and Forest Yoga Hike

Mushroom Foraging and Forest Yoga Hike
Spend the day in the forest with us — foraging for mushrooms, moving through a yoga practice on the trail, and slowing down with some mindfulness along the way.
This one's a collaboration between Brandon of I See Fungi, who'll lead mushroom identification and foraging as we hike, and Andrea of Embodied Wayfinding, who'll guide a yoga and mindfulness session out in the forest. We'll break for a picnic lunch at a gorgeous swimming hole with waterfall. Expect a mix of learning, movement, and presence — no experience with either foraging or yoga required.
What to expect:
- Meet at 9:00 AM at the Ingles in Pickens to caravan together to the trailhead
- On trail from 10:45 AM to 2:45 PM
- About a 1-hour drive to the trailhead — please fuel up before you arrive
- Moderate difficulty, approximately 3 miles
- The trail passes a waterfall with a swimming area, so bring a suit if you'd like to take a dip. Highly recommended!
- Bring your own picnic lunch and water
- Optional: natural bug deterrent and sun protection
Cost: $50 per person
