Four seasons
Choose the best 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: April 2026
Winter
Stay on marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you head out. Keep dogs on a leash and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Start early for glacier views, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings bring calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on sturdy paths.
