Four seasons
Choose the ideal month for the right experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: August 2024
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and head out at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings invite calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on sturdy paths.
