About Pollen in Inverness

Spring, March-May, brings high tree pollen: Birch dominant from Ness Islands and city parks; Alder and Willow along River Ness; Oak from surrounding estates. Summer, May-July, sees peak Grass pollen from River Ness floodplains and surrounding agricultural land.

Inverness’s topographical basin, nestled by hills, can trap pollen on calm, warm days; coastal winds, however, often aid dispersion. Autumn, August-October, presents elevated Mould spores from damp leaf decomposition in parks and shaded urban environments, exacerbated by Highland humidity.

The pollen count in Inverness today is moderate, driven mainly by Grass (mixed).
