The ring marks Riva del Garda, the dots are the rest of the measurement network in Trentino-Alto Adige. The field between points is interpolated; clicking a point opens its town.

Lactarius deliciosus near Riva del Garda: where to look

Lactarius deliciosus — botanical illustration

Lactarius deliciosus: the species in brief

How to tell it

An orange cap marked with darker concentric rings. Bruised areas often turn green. The orange latex is one of the most useful identification features.

Where it grows

Associated with conifers, especially pine, in plantations, woodland edges, grass and moss.

In the kitchen

Often fried, grilled or preserved. In parts of eastern Europe it is also salted. Its firm texture and slightly resinous flavour stand up well to simple cooking.

Nutrition

Low in calories. Nutritional values vary by species, age and preparation.

This is a note about the species, not about what is in your basket. Full card with lookalikes →

Been out in Riva del Garda? Tell us how it went

No sign-up, five seconds. Reports are visible to everyone and help us check the forecast — where people say “nothing out there” and the model promises a flush, the model is wrong.

How much did you find?
When were you out?

This form does not ask for coordinates. What gets published is the name, the rating and the text — nothing else.

Common questions

Are there mushrooms in Riva del Garda in September 2026?

Today's foraging index is 61 out of 100. It is built from two weeks of rainfall, soil temperature, the length of the dry spell and each species' season, and it updates daily.

Which mushrooms are picked around Riva del Garda?

There are too few records for this region to name species yet. We will not list them «from the field guide»: an unconfirmed list looks exactly like a confirmed one and is worth something else entirely.

How accurate is this forecast?

It is a model of weather and season, not an observation of the wood. It answers «is this week worth a trip» well, and it does not know what is growing round the next bend. We measure its accuracy against independent records and publish the result — without that number a forecast stays a promise.

The index is high but I found nothing — why?

The index reads weather and season — things that are the same for tens of kilometres around. It does not know your particular wood, and that is where the mushroom grows. The usual reasons: wrong trees — every species has its own, and no weather makes up for the wrong stand; the wood was felled recently or is young — the mycelium takes years to recover; the spot is picked out — everything near a road or a car park goes over a weekend; the flush has been taken — you came a day after those who came on time; or the flush passed and slugs and larvae got there first, which the model cannot see. The reverse holds too: a low index does not mean an empty wood. It means the conditions are against you, not that there is nothing there.
