Four seasons
Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2027
Winter
Stay on marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you go. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blossoms to many valleys; steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and crisper mornings make for gentler hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on well-used trails.
