I found a lot in the cow pastures just out of Byron back in 2004. Only about half a k or so from Belongil fields caravan park
Yeah its awesome down that way. I used to go between murwillumbah and nimbin but atm its just not worth it with the restrictions etc which is why I was hoping for somewhere the qld side of the boarder. Thank you for responding though :) Stay safe and happy.

Hello lovely people. I live in south east qld and am having an awful time trying to find places to go a hunting around here. Usually head down northern NSW but with the back and forward boarder restrictions etc I just haven't been down for a while. Would anyone know of good spots between Redcliffe and Glasshouse mountains to find those magical mushrooms that I hold dear? Thank you muchly for any advice.
Hi Astra. I'm on the Sunny coast and on the Hun too without much luck. Big rains tonight do I'm gonna give it another crack tomorrow. I'll let you know if I get lucky

There is a test for psilocybin now. Miraculix psilo-Qtest. Easily check for magic. If a mushroom makes psilocybin, it doesn't make any toxins. Even in a family that has poisonous members. All mushrooms that make psilocybin are safely edible.
The earth has you. Enjoy living.

How did you guys go with your hunting ?
I've found shrooms in my cow paddocks up in gympie but I really wana start a mushy social hunting group where we go for Walks once a month around sunshine coast.

Shromery is a great forum to join also

Where I am, a few hours below Sydney, they grow in broken down wood/mulch and have been abundant for the last few months.

I picked some great ones from the back of woolies car park where they laid mulch around trees in 2014 and that patch is still going strong!!!

a lot of the time you find plenty in urban environments from councils maintaining areas with already decomposing mulch.

another great spot for goldtops is the edge of fire trails in the bush/hills before the mountains, where each year they grade the roads and the years of this happening, have spread the spores all over the place! combine that with the broken down timber pushed aside each year and sunlight, it’s the perfect conditions.

the council actually go up each year to “destroy” these masses of mushrooms and in the process have inadvertently helped create better conditions than there would be if left alone. Thanks guys hahaha

Bit further south, the Brindabella mountains.
Give me an hour or so and I’ll screenshot you the map of a good spot/dirt road to walk alongside.
