At Arosa Lenzerheide Ski Area, the pollen season is short and shaped by elevation, running from roughly June through August as larch and alpine meadow grasses take over lower on the slopes. The lowland tree pollen calendar barely applies here, since vegetation cover thins out quickly with altitude, leaving only sparse pollen sources near the summit.

The Arosa pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.

Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.

Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Arosa, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.

This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
