Pollen Count & Forecast for Salzburg
About Pollen in Salzburg
Salzburg’s spring allergy season (March-May) has high Hazel (Corylus) and Alder (Alnus) counts; Birch (Betula) is common on the Mönchsberg and Kapuzinerberg hills. Beech (Fagus) and Ash (Fraxinus) are frequent in the Mirabellgarten and Hellbrunn Palace grounds. Summer (May-August) has Grass (Poaceae) pollen; these originate from meadows along the Salzach riverbanks and Gaisberg mountain slopes.
The city’s basin location between steep mountains traps pollen; alpine valley winds move allergens into urban areas. Autumn and winter have Mould (Alternaria, Cladosporium) spores; these grow in damp leaf litter near the Leopoldskroner Weiher and local forests.
