Grass pollen still a burden in Tyrol!

Grasspollen. While the grass pollen load in Tyrol is generally low, the allergen load can reach moderate levels locally. This is particularly true at higher altitudes, such as in Obergurgl, as well as in the valleys around Wörgl and Lienz. The highest pollen levels are measured near meadows and at higher altitudes during sunny periods. Plantain and dock pollen are also present in the air, which further increases the allergen load for people allergic to grass pollen.

Mugwort pollen. The imminent threat for pollen allergy sufferers is mugwort. Currently, we have not detected any mugwort pollen in the air in the region. We will keep you informed of any developments.

Other types of pollen. We are also monitoring pollen from pine and stinging nettle, among others, which are of minor allergological significance.

Fungal spores. The concentration of fungal sp ores is moderate. Fungal sp ores can cause some allergic reactions.

Weather conditions. It is important to note that precipitation reduces the concentration of pollen in the air, providing relief to pollen allergy sufferers.

Ragweed pollen season is also just around the corner!
If you would like to help us and other allergy sufferers to reduce exposure during this year's season, you can report ragweed populations in your area via the Ragweed Finder app or online at ragweedfinder.at!
