Údolí Kunratického potoka

Údolí Kunratického potoka translates to Valley Brook in English and is a very large park in Prague 11, South of the center of the city. Its about a 30 minute trip from my apartment to get here via metro. I came here on a warm day in mid September and was very surprised by what it was. I had assumed that it was a very large but normal park that you find throughout Prague but instead it resembles that of a State Park in New York. Valley Brook is a vast forested area with a system of broad trails running though it. While i was there i saw many people there running, cycling, taking it the fresh air and of course, mushroom hunting. I was astonished by the amount of fungi there was growing on the floor of the forest and trees, long since fallen. I seemed as though you couldn't take a step without crushing a mushroom.

I am not too versed in classification of mushrooms but I took many photos of ones that I saw.
