Pollen information for Salzburg from 5 March 2026
Hazel and alder are flowering! The pollen concentration is rising!
With the spring-like temperatures and sunshine, the pollen concentration of hazel and alder has risen sharply, which can lead to severe stress. However, the hazel and alder blossom is likely to have peaked soon in the city of Salzburg and in the Flachgau and Tennengau regions. Pollen from yew and elm is also already in the air, and in some places willow is already beginning to bloom, but the pollen from these three species is less relevant from an allergological point of view.
In the inner mountains and at medium altitudes, the pollen count of hazel and alder can increase significantly, especially in sunny and exposed locations. In some cases, very high levels are to be expected here. In Pinzgau, Pongau and Lungau, the peak of the hazel and alder blossom is still to come.
In the event of fog, precipitation and frost, the catkins close and no pollen is released!
