Attention: Birch and ash trees in bloom - heavy pollen load!

The first birch catkins and ash tree inflorescences have opened after the cold Holy Week, which caused a delay in the pollen count, and released a lot of pollen. At the same time, the hornbeam has also started to flower due to the mild spring temperatures.

Attention! The Salzburg Pollen Warning Service warns:

This mixture and concentration of pollen can cause severe to very severe symptoms in allergy sufferers.

Due to the mild Easter weather, the first catkins of birch and ash are already dusting the mountain meadows and higher altitudes. Sensitive people should expect discomfort. In colder temperatures, however, the flowers close again and no longer release pollen. The flowering period for hazel and alder should also be coming to an end now, with only a little pollen in the air.

Also in the pollen spectrum: Elm, poplar, willow
