7-Day Pollen Forecast for Berlin
Pollen Season in Berlin
Berlin sits in the North German Plain, surrounded by pine forests, birch woodland, and extensive agricultural fields that make it one of Europe's most challenging cities for pollen allergy sufferers. The birch pollen season is particularly severe here — Berlin's Tiergarten, Grunewald forest, and Tempelhof field contain tens of thousands of birch trees that synchronise their release each April, producing one of Germany's highest birch pollen counts. Alder follows from February and overlaps with early birch. Grass pollen peaks in May and June across the city's many parks and Brandenburg meadows. Mugwort becomes relevant in late July through August on disturbed urban ground. Continental winds from the east can import additional pollen, extending peak days unpredictably. About 15% of Berliners suffer from hay fever, with birch allergy disproportionately common.
- The birch season in Berlin is uniquely intense — consider starting antihistamines two weeks before the typical April onset.
- Avoid Grunewald and Tiergarten on sunny April mornings; birch counts can exceed 1,000 grains/m³ at peak.
- Wind directions matter: easterly winds from Brandenburg fields bring the highest grass counts in June.
