Current pollen report for Tyrol
February 13th 2026
Alder and hazel pollen season has begun in Tyrol!
Following last week’s report, when the first signs of increasing pollen activity were observed, the situation has now clearly intensified. Over the past weekend, mild temperatures and sunny conditions resulted in a marked increase in pollen release. Both alder and hazel are now in full bloom in many lowland areas. Hazel shrubs are easily recognisable by their numerous yellow catkins. Many individuals sensitive to
Alder pollen: Alder pollen concentrations reached moderate to locally high levels over the weekend, depending on the region. Moderate levels are expected to persist during the coming week.
Hazel pollen: Hazel is now flowering intensively. Pollen concentrations have increased substantially, contributing significantly to the overall allergenic load. Regional variability remains evident, with some areas experiencing higher exposure than others. Moderate to locally high levels are expected in the coming week.
Other pollen types: Only very small amounts of other pollen types are currently being recorded.
Situation at higher altitudes: At higher elevations, vegetation development remains delayed. No relevant pollen load is expected there, and no allergenic risk is currently present.
The past weekend marked the effective start of the pollen season in Tyrol, with moderate to locally high pollen loads from alder and hazel. Forecasted cooler temperatures and more cloudy conditions in the coming week may temporarily reduce the pollen release and slightly alleviate the allergenic burden. However, during warmer and sunnier periods, pollen concentrations can increase rapidly.
We will continue to closely monitor developments and provide weekly updates as the season progresses.
