Pollen and allergies — Lendava

Lendava lies in Prekmurje, in the far northeastern tip of Slovenia, in a plain with Pannonian climate, wet lowland meadows, and extensive arable land. The landscape is very similar to neighboring Slavonian Posavina — which includes ragweed, which is more pronounced here than in any other part of Slovenia.

Main allergens and season

  • Late winter and spring (February–May): alder along watercourses, hazel and birch from surrounding lowland forests.
  • Late spring and summer (May–July): grasses from the extensive Prekmurje meadows — one of the main summer allergens in the region.
  • Late summer and autumn (August–September): ragweed, which in the wet lowland along rivers, roads, and cultivated surfaces flourishes and often makes the hardest part of the season.

Lendava does not have its own measuring station on this service, so the displayed forecast is based on a European CAMS model (via Open-Meteo) — the values are modeled, not measured, but a useful guide for planning outdoor activities.
