Unfortunately, Graz often has high pollen counts due to being surrounded by mountains. Below is a guide on what is blooming each month in Graz. The Austrian Pollen Information Service at the Medical University of Vienna also provides a daily pollen forecast for your neighourhood (in German and English), plus a useful app. If you suffer badly from allergies, you can also talk to your doctor about immunotherapy (hyposensitsation) where you receive injections or take daily drops to desensitize.
