Glenrock Ghost Fungus Tours exists to show people glow-in-the-dark mushrooms each autumn in Glenrock State Conservation Area, Newcastle, NSW.

An award-winning scientist and speaker will guide you safely to the ghost fungus at night, when the mushrooms appear. Explanation will be given on the role of fungus in the ecosystem and how the bioluminescent fungus produces light. There will be time to take photos of the soft green glow.

Tours are fun and are suitable for everyone aged 5+ who can walk on muddy, uneven trails.
