Local Environmental Conditions
Around 52% of the area near the heart of Camping at Baell Woods is woodland, with a good deal of farmland and some open grassland. With this much woodland around, trees are an important local pollen source. Grasses are also a significant pollen source here. Pasture and uncultivated field edges in the farmland provide room for grasses and weeds.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in mid-spring. Grasses take over in late spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall. Summer is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.
