The Where are the mushrooms? route is located in the parish of Canillo and through a mix of games and other activities helps children to explore the magical world of the mushrooms that appear in our forests every season. The path starts out on the road to Coll d'Ordino, near Nilo el Tamarro in Canillo. The route is designed for little ones to discover the most common mushrooms in our small country alongside their families in a way that’s fun and exciting. To play and complete the activities, visitors will have the help of a guide. 

Once the route has been completed, a diploma certifying the children as “Macarulles” can be downloaded from the Visitandorra website.

In the tourist offices you will find notebooks (1€) to use as you discover The Menairons’ Forest and other routes as a family. One thing you’ll love about the Macarulla magic trails is that the game elements and the “hidden” surprises of the route have all been conceived and produced by local artists and craftsmen using quality, sustainable materials that are respectful of the natural environment, meaning they also integrate perfectly into the landscape. 

The Macarulla routes run along mountain paths, so you should always wear suitable footwear and clothing, as well as taking the necessary precautions, especially for children's safety.
