Four seasons
Choose the ideal month for the perfect experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche assessments in winter, blossoms in spring, crisp mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: February 2026
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs on a leash and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings bloom-season in many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier viewing, swim only in approved areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings invite calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stick to sturdy trails.
