You need to pay to collect mashrooms in the Italian forests...


In Italy, If you wanna go out a sunny autumn day in the forest and collect some mushrooms you first need to apply and pay for a "mushroom permission card". This cost in between 20-50 Euro. It is really against the Swedish "rights of common" (allemansrätt) which give everyone free rights out in the nature...

I found out as I said that today, a beautiful sunny autumn day, would had been great for a spontaneous mushroom collecting day in the forest but obviously that can not be spontaneous at all in Italy as you need to apply weeks before for the permission, pay the fee and get the card.

I keep wondering where all the money the Italians are paying in high taxes, extremely high costs for traveling on Italian highways and the permission fees that they pay for whatever they wanna do end up?

  1. Hej. Tror allemansrätten är ganska unikt för Sverige så Sverige har ju sina fördelar med. Synd bara att vi snart får snö medans ni fortfarande sitter i t-shirt på uteserveringarna.:)
    Kram
