Four seasons
Choose the right 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: March 2027
Winter
Stay on designated snow routes and verify avalanche risk before heading out. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent widening of trails, and hike at dawn to observe birdlife.
Summer
Start early to reach glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and cooler mornings invite calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
