Can you truffle hunt in France?
Yes—France is one of the best countries in the world for truffle hunting, with regions like Provence renowned for both black winter truffles and summer truffles. This experience allows you to take part in this time-honored tradition alongside locals.
When Is Truffle Season in France?
The truffle season in France depends on the type:
Black truffles are in season November through March, with peak hunting in January and February.
Summer truffles are found April through September, with the best quality typically around July.
What time of year is best for truffle hunting?
The best time depends on your truffle preference. For rich, aromatic black truffles, visit in winter. For a lighter, nutty flavor, summer truffles in July are a seasonal highlight.
